Delimbo<\/strong>
\nCalle P\u00e9rez Gald\u00f3s n\u00ba 1, Sevilla, Spain
\nMay 14th – July 15th 2010<\/p>\n

The Reticula<\/strong><\/em> exhibition is the study of a union between calculated geometric forms and uncontrolled factors such as wear caused by spontaneous actions produced by pedestrians. Through experiments in the streets of Seville, I observed how these external factors were affecting the works installed in the street while at the same time influencing the results that would be presented in the gallery.<\/p>\n

I developed two experiments:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1 – Script 1.1<\/em>
\n2 – Carteles Desgarrados (Torn Posters)<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/h5>\n

Script 1.1, Mural Descontrolado<\/em> (Uncontrolled Mural)<\/h2>\n

The SCRIPT<\/em> project (see Script 1.0<\/em><\/a>) consists of murals painted by following a set of predefined rules determined by the artist. Thus, the development of the work is done in an uncontrolled manner and the end result is unexpected.
\nIn this way, the artist is a spectator in his own artwork, and can be surprised by the outcome.<\/p>\n

To run the script in Sevilla, I drew a grid on the wall where, according to the results obtained, the lines would be drawn. Each line depended on four elements:<\/p>\n

1 – A horizontal coordinate (a letter)
\n2 – A vertical coordinate (a number)
\n3 – A color
\n4 – A direction (an arrow)
\nFor example: E, 7, yellow, vertical upward.<\/p>\n

I decided to leave the choice (though unconscious) of these four elements to the pedestrians. I stapled sheets of paper arranged in four groups (one for each item) in the street. Each group made a sort of mini-notebook from which the leaves could be torn. In this manner the combinations that defined the lines of the mural were formed on there own. I walked around the city to record the state of the papers between four and six times a day. I only wrote down the codes generated on a site where at least one paper had been torn. Each time a new combination was generated, I wrote it down in a notebook in the order in which it was seen. The day before the opening, we reviewed all the combinations and painted each line in the order in which it was documented.<\/p>\n

The experiment lasted five days and 19 lines were painted.<\/p>\n
