Autor:Laura Torrado
La artista visual Laura Torrado protagoniza esta exposición individual generada a partir de una investigación artística sobre el mineral lapis specularis, la selenita, llevada a cabo en el territorio de la provincia de Cuenca. Siguiendo la línea de trabajos anteriores, utiliza materiales de la naturaleza que entablan un diálogo con el cuerpo. Sus escenografías y puestas en escenas denotan la influencia del teatro en su trabajo y cuestionan los estereotipos establecidos en torno a lo femenino.
Specularia. The Reflection of Venus
Specularia. The Reflection of Venus is a photographic story based on artistic research mapping out the province of Cuenca, around the Roman cities of Ercávica, Valeria and Segóbriga. In this project, the artist uses as her working material lapis specularis or specular stone, a mineral known as selenite or moonstone, whose deposits were mined during the High Roman Empire in the first and second century A.D., covering an area, as Pliny the Elder indicated in his book Natural History, of around 100,000 Roman steps around the city of Segóbriga. The project consists of a series of images, the result of a poetic pilgrimage through the landscape and architectural ruins of three geographical areas, encouraging a symbolic and mystical dialogue with the land and the memory of place.
