| About the Artist | |
Faithful to the visual culture of our times, the Basque author Ainize Txopitea offers us a series of visual poems that share a sign and fate of our age, social, political, sexual and informative culture. |

| With this work, Ainize Txopitea locates its spectators within this belief, so important by the avant-garde artists of all times, by using mainly a visual language. And by just taking a look at these collages we can recognize the speed at which certain contents are emitted and perceived. This makes possible to transmit a series of sensations and emotions which are related to the thematic of violence with a minimal verbal syntax focused in lexical variants but making us paying attention to color and a selection of icons from popular culture.
The main theme of these partworks is not new neither the visual techniques used by the author. She “speaks†to us about one of the biggest crises of our epoch. Fragmentation and multiplicity operate as ethic and aesthetic elements of her visual writing. What the author offers us is neither a visual nor a verbal delight to escape from the daily conflicts. She is not interested in a visual locus amoenus but in a recyclable and significant space that in just a few seconds offers us critical, esthetic and political flashes, about dark aspects of our world dominated by stress and emptiness. |
