Subjectus in the Well of Memory: concentration and distraction Print

"Subjectus in the Well of Memory: concentration and distraction" is another of the paintings of William Marquina, elaborated on a sheet of aluminum. The artist worked the figures of the two girls drawing with a technique of wear by abrasive tools (using pure paper sandpaper) on its surface and in certain areas highlighting the forms with a pictorial style pop drop-wise with Acrylic colors. The two figures appear: a revised the foot in concentrated attitude and the other with the lost look or in a State of Enchantment to the pool of memory, where perch. This piece is inspired by a theme of the ancient philosophy of Sparta to nearly a tradition long before Homer, which worshiped the goddess Thetis by dances that were held in his honor with canticles and offerings (fees). Alcman's who can believe stood out from their choreographers, comes from their poetic songs the old concept of ousia, which Aristotle later came to study and reveal as a key principle in his metaphysics as substance or entity. The highlights of this principle are the path through which the maidens (subjectus) dance in their March to thetis to deliver their offerings, and post or goal where should go or return (fate), etc. In that journey Alcman plays the Subjectus in his poetry with a double character, dual or of unfolding, that in our society later added culture as "subject" and "be", two antagonistic ways live with which the contemporary man, the essence of all historical knot, and certain attitudes on the market, politics, society , and in general the life of humanity, etc., always one as default and the other as a virtue.
