EARTH: A RETROSPECTIVE — LA DIMENSION DESCONOCIDA
Bombas Gens, Valencia, SP
Studio Project, Exhibition

Imagining the third dimension_A dialogue between speculation and reality. The connection between the past and the present is broken, the only thing left is a series of photographs from which to reimage, workout, and reconstruct a past. Positioned between a detective and a dreamer’s world, we need to discern what is contained within the images by reconstructing those objects and contexts never experienced before.

If the ways in which we make sense of the world are based on our personal experience and memory… How do we work out any context, any behaviour, any object when we are not familiar with what is depicted?

Working from photographs of the Per Amor A L’Art Collection participants take a role between that of a detective and a dreamer to produce materialisations, interpretations and translations of what is depicted in the images. This section opens with a collection of 3D printed objects produced by the students of the master Space and Communication at HEAD—Genève. 

During this workshop, an archive of 28 objects was 3D printed. These objects are exhibited in Room 6 under the title RE-COLLECTIONS as part of the exhibition “Earth, a Retrospective”, curated by El Ultimo Grito with Fundació Per Amor a l’Art Comunidad de la Comunidad Valenciana for the World Capital of Design Valencia 2022.
