Stories of Films

—2021—

In this project an encounter between the visual arts and cinema, is created symbolically embodying key moments of cinema and then shifting them from one format to another. In this process, figurative images are created that reinforce the notion of perpetuity in the subject-space-object relation in the reproduction of culture and artistic creation and, appropriating meanings, dynamics and narratives, by the construction of installations that assume the role of a portal between cinema and the visual arts. 

The choice of the paper cutout technique is inspired by the cut list or negative cut list of the old analog film post-production techniques, where this procedure represented both a labor characteristic of a technological stage, as well as a job assigned mostly to women. This last point is a nexus in which the artist addresses the female role in the history of cinema. 

In this work, paper and light dialogue with the technical memory of cinema and its cultural elements in a world in constant technological and social change.
