Chocoan Gold - Intramineral Gold. Sculpture

Inspired by minerals and light, this series of works is called "Intramineral Light", which refers to the self-conscious light that Torres finds when transcending limits and dead end situations. Corners symbolize the limit of all limits, therefore intramineral light is the result of transcending them. "Modular Fungi" are creatures born from that light and symbolize new ways of dealing with matters such as space, limits, mineral resources and light itself. "Chocoan Gold" refers to the social and environmental conflict that is currently happening in Chocó, a gold rich region of Colombia. Since a majority of its population are Afro-descendant, Torres uses black as the mineral colour of the piece, and gold as its intramineral light just to illustrate the paradoxical situation of this region in which wealth is not a synonym of wellness but of war, illegality and poverty.
