Sketches For Found Sculptures
Sketches For Found Sculptures
Das Ausgangsmaterial für die Serie „Sketches for Found Sculptures“ findet die Künstlerin Andrea Acosta auf Spaziergängen durch Städte wie Paris und Bogota. Diese zufällig gefundenen skulpturalen Situationen animieren sie zu Zeichnungen, auf denen sie mögliche Entstehungssituationen festhält:
„Through a series of compositions I appropriate these temporal ‘accidents’, and present them as if they were interventions realized by me. Thus the photographs become the documentation of a ‘performed’ action; the drawings, a sort of preparatory annotations on how to carry out the found ‘interventions’; and the title a conceptual lens to frame both. Through these appropriations I explore the idea of how this situations came to be and what other meanings could they have. What other stories can the city be telling us if we stop to listen?“
