How to retrace our footsteps
How to speak about these issues once again without falling into the same phrases, into the heavy and inexorable questions? How to generate in ourselves and in those around us that commotion facing certain irresolvable problems of the past and still inexplicable today?
Together with Liana Strasberg we will go in search of some answers.
This search is focused on the object, on the evidence, on what restores memory, on what gives presence to lost identity.
The symbols, in this case, shoes, empty of the practical, everyday meaning, are impregnated of metaphorical meanings. They are installations full of historical-philosophical significance that fulfill a legacy: to bring our view up to date.
There is where the necessary approach is fulfilled, which Liana achieves using compatible generational channels, so that through perception mechanisms these subjects today bring us closer to a moral and emotional commitment.
We are the last eyewitnesses of the testimonies of those who have lived through these situations of terror and are alive.
Artists like Strasberg, are those who are committed to the task of anchoring the events in our memory and in the memory of the future generations by means of their work.
