The drive: Lola Guerrera - Black Room
Lola Guerrera explores the intersection between art and artificial intelligence in our gallery's black room.
Renowned for her captivating aerial sculptures, Lola Guerrera now ventures into a new frontier by harnessing the power of Artificial Intelligence to go beyond traditional artistic boundaries. With a unique installation, she immerses us in a world of unexpected connections, where the inert comes to life and the intangible materialises in a symphony of opposites.
By meticulously assembling contrasting elements, the artist defies conventional logic, shaping a creation that transcends the limits of the comprehensible. Uniting Artificial Intelligence, represented by a physically formless algorithm, with the tangible solidity of stone, Lola Guerrera invites us to contemplate the magic of transformation.
Stone, traditionally considered inert and lifeless, acquires new dimensions under Guerrera's gaze. With the incorporation of light, this apparently static material comes to life, its texture recalling the sinuous veins of human flesh. At this meeting point between the physical and the abstract, a vital drive emerges, a connection that transcends mere materiality.
Behind each choice of material and each gesture of the artist, an echo of her own emotional biography can be glimpsed. The stone used in this work is not simply a resource, but the reflection of a process of personal transformation. Coming from the debris of another work, this discarded stone revives under Guerrera's care, finding a new life suspended in the air, as a symbol of rebirth and redemption.
Thus, through this unique piece, Lola Guerrera invites us to reflect on the power of creativity to transform the ordinary into the extraordinary, the inert into vitality, and the past into the present. In this space where opposites converge, we find an expression of the vital force that drives art and the human capacity to give new life to what was once discarded.
