"[...] The whole sea is mysterious and resonant
initial word;
nothing behind him, nothing in front;
the sea is a constant
eternity and immortality movement [...]. "
"It paints the Sea", Eduardo Marquina.
nitrate Scenes The project is an initiative promoted by a group of ceramics Asturian professionals who have agreed on the need to give a boost to innovative contemporary ceramics made in the Principality. There are very good potters throughout Asturias, so we intend to share with us the idea of \u200b\u200bcontinuing such projects, so that all people can bring as well another alternative way of perceiving and understanding the ceramics, say .
The group is composed of ten potters with years of experience in the office behind him and a considerable artistic and professional background, belonging to the Association of Potters of Asturias. In any case, such an initiative is often a genuine opportunity to live-and, of course, enjoy the experience of collaboration, and teamwork, which can have very positive results for all participants, along with promoting and / contrast or facilitate the exchange of experiences.
The work process in detail
This shared vision then arose the idea of \u200b\u200bmaking an intervention in a public space. After evaluating different alternatives action, the beach was finally chosen onstage to do a job where everyone has come to feel truly
accomplices. The connecting links between the respective proposals were these colorful and cool objects that accompany any good swimmer invariably that claims to be, in any sand, one summer after another umbrella, slippers, towel, sunscreen, sunglasses ...
Each of these classics of the repertoire Beach seemed to find its place in the respective talleres.Y there began to grow little by little, 'feeding' with the creativity of each of the owners. The meeting was very pleasant and, above all, very rich ... detail. Despite the disparity, both of criteria, including techniques used, we made a real united front, making the end result was clearly unsatisfactory for todos.Hemos concluded with a sense of finish to take a huge chocolate and mint ice cream. Sweet and cool at once ...
A thoughtful and reasoned project
Among the arguments used to support the project, participants pointed out, citando1, that [...] a space is made public to the extent that it strengthens imagination and creativity through activities that encourage communication, individual and collective recognition, and making group instituted social basic symbolic component of spatiality citizen 'is as if the citizens want to make their cities and landscapes are not a (only) to live, but (also) to evoke. "
[...] a scene that alludes to the perception of instant experiences the individual occurs in many relationships that it establishes with objects external to it, setting up 'events, situations, occasions ... emerging in the crossroads ( ...) that they cause ', becoming protagonists of urban sociability. [...] The works of art located in public places acquire meaning to the extent that convert the space into a place, which distinguishes the notions of territory and space itself, whereas 'if the territory is a busy place,
space is primarily a practiced place' . [...].
General objectives of the confluence
First, and as needed
members of the confluence, design and develop actions and ephemeral artistic interventions in public spaces such as beaches, forests, mountains, parks ... share their creative experiences with ceramics, and thus closer to the public.
Second, all have agreed from the beginning in the convenience of using these spaces as sites of expression and social and artistic reflection: We understand public space as a space for ongoing dialogue, open to experimentation and artistic
participation.
Finally, propose to the ceramic-result of the interaction of the four natural elements of excellence: earth, water, fire and air, as a particularly appropriate medium for this type of action. Without doubt, we are talking about works of art that arise from the 'communication' and / or interaction between the most important elements of nature and man.
Specific objectives of the "Scenes of nitrate" Harnessing
available natural resources while fostering a distinctly cultural initiative, to develop further new proposals in other public places, so places interrelate in some way through the possible flows and exchanges, adding a new repertoire of approaches to the role of landscape, to use spaces, places or territories as real laboratories in which practical experience of other possibilities for artistic reception. Search
expressly maximum integration of the ceramic pieces in the environment, using performance budgets of the current trends in environmental design, thus closely linking artistic creation, design and nature, and, as a climax, to convert a natural environment in an unexpected exhibition hall hosting diverse works, but arising from natural elements.
