| The collective exhibition is part of the City Council's #ReactivosCulturales program | After an intense process of learning and creative evolution, tomorrow, Thursday, October 22, the exhibition 'ADN.
Deoxyribonucleic acid for a hereditary transmission ', a collective sample that is part of the #ReactivosCulturales program of the Murcia City Council and collects the work of 10 emerging artists from all graphic fields -design, illustration, collage, photography, animation, augmented reality, sculpture, performance ...-.It is a selection of young talents from the Region - nine from Murcia and one from Jaén - led by the designer and Art director Cristóbal Sánchez, the project's alma mater.
Not in vain, this graphic experimentation event baptized as Mu-tantes is his artistic residence at the Artillery Barracks.
A project to which months of work have been allocated coordinated by him and the rest of the creatives and professionals of the sector that make up the Mu-tantes team: Adrián Marzal, Roberto Navarro, Aíta Salinas, Curlos Guerrero and Chema López.The exhibition, the second under the mutant stamp coined by Sánchez, can be visited until the end of the year in Pavilion 1 of the center, which has become a benchmark for new artistic trends and talent recruitment.On this occasion, 25 pts, Álex Lafuente, Borja Torres, Cristina Galindo, Diego Lobenal, Manel Quílez, Marta Álvarez, Nuria Navarro, Samu Gambín and Sevilla Primate will be the artists who will show their DNA, their most personal and experimental project.
Ideas embodied in installations that will touch sensitivities, inviting the viewer to live a different experience and breaking stereotypes.
Topics such as gambling, excess technology, trichotillomania, toxic relationships, capitalism and pornography will be seen in the exhibition.A non-profit project that is committed to visual culture and emerging artists, to give a voice in a close and emotional way to a sector that needs it and that screams loudly to show the world its potential.
Murcia is design, experimentation and young talent.
And Mu-tantes, a platform where you can evolve as an artist.
For Sánchez -who currently works at MABA, where he carries out packaging, branding and web projects- the premise is the unprecedented, the interior of the artist, that idea capable of evolving and mutating until it reaches the audience.The organizers of the exhibition -which will be held with controlled capacity and all necessary prevention measures against Covid- recommend visiting it in the afternoon to better view all the projections and that the audiovisual material that has been prepared is not affected by the natural light.The summary of the ten artistic proposals on display is as follows:Alex Lafuente.
'Space absenteeism'Álex Lafuente, photographer and designer, presents a DNA loaded with minimalism and light.
A personal and direct look between space and human habits.
From the observation of the urbanized landscape, added to the use of a synthesized and subjective photography, it gives rise to the creation of images that evoke emotions such as melancholy, boredom, uneasiness and even a certain point that encourages abstraction.
His work is a benchmark for contemporary photography in Murcia and the project he presents has been coordinated by Aíta Salinas.Cristina Galindo.
'Don "t cry'Cristina Galindo (Gala), graphic designer and plastic artist, breaks stereotypes.
His work is pure color, an explosion of the senses that has a visual power inspired by unusual codes at the graphic level.
A DNA in the form of a mixed technique with a multidisciplinary nature.
His proposal 'Do not cry me' mixes plasticity, collage, design and constant learning throughout its process.
A project -coordinated by Chema López- in which, through a series of volumetric posters, he recounts his toxic relationship with his former partner.Diego Lobenal.
'Skin'Diego Lobenal, designer and versatile performer, is a benchmark in Murcian cultural management with the space for reflection, INCOGNITE SPACE and performative actions such as FAAK.
'Pellejo' is a project that was born from another project, a second skin, a layer that the artist has wanted to have forever and that hides stories, people, places, ink and secrets.
A wild installation for a project that mutates tattooed on his own skin.
For Diego, ink is the reason and motive for this approach, its composition and arrangement, size and stroke, this project is focused on fonts and their compilation.
This is the beginning of the archive of a graphic project where the letters not only tell stories but also interpret them through memory.
His proposal has been coordinated by Curlos Guerrero.Seville Primate.
'Tragic transgenic worlds'Sevilla Primate, illustrator, tattoo artist and plastic artist proposes a wild installation where illustration and painting techniques merge into a powerful primitive combo with doses of color and mutant animals.
According to the creator himself, it is a project that focuses on human stupidity and its consequences.
An artistic proposal - coordinated by Chema López and Curlos Guerrero - that seeks empathy and pain in a world increasingly damaged and destroyed by human beings.
His plastic qualities and limitless imagination have led Cristian (the real name after the artistic one) to be one of the exponents with the most projection of the alternative scene of Murcian illustration.Nuria Navarro.
'22'Nuria Navarro, designer and artist with extensive experience in plastic techniques, textile design and illustration, appears in Mu-tantes to cross unknown thresholds with an installation full of hedonism and figurativeism.
His project is one of those that has changed the most in the months of preparation, giving an intrinsic value to the concept of the exhibition.
For her proposal - coordinated by Cristóbal Sánchez - the artist has kept the tarot in mind as a conductive element.
For this reason, the choice of arcanum number 22, known as 'El loco', to shape the entire performative process and ideology.
The result is an installation with which the artist will be able to transport the visitor to another sensory state.Manel Quílez.
'Colpaso'Manel Quílez, graphic designer and art director, presents an audiovisual installation focused on error, on the saturation of software.
A project - coordinated by Adrián Marzal - that combines images created by errors in a computer system without any intervention other than chance.
That which escaped all predictions to show the beauty of the unexpected.
The simple purity of a spontaneous gesture portrays a colorful apocalypse on the border between end and beginning.
A graphic discourse that generates concern, abstraction and purity at the same level.
An error that has turned into a success, a visual and interactive stimulus, in pieces of digital art where light and colors are the protagonists.
Quílez is a benchmark of Murcian design,that continues to create a school and to this day continues to be one of the most representative figures on the graphic scene.Samu Gambin.
'The bank always wins'Samu Gambín, illustrator and graphic animator, is a promising young artist in animation and illustration.
His proposal - coordinated by Roberto Navarro - is an animated short with a critical and fictitious character where the experimental theme predominates to transmit to the viewer the phases that a gambler goes through.
A story told through his eyes, his gaze as a child.
Gambín awareness of the drama of gambling through his own experience.
In this way, it regresses and regresses the viewer to the moments or phases in which they have been in contact with the disease from the family nucleus.
A real problem, which highlights the disaster of the gambling business in this country. Marta Alvarez.
'Trichotillomania'Marta Álvarez, diseñadora gráfica e ilustradora, presenta una instalación muy especial, cargada de emociones.
Tricotilomanía es el grito interno ante un trastorno, una necesitad instintiva de concienciar y poner sobre la mesa un término poco conocido para la sociedad.
Con su trabajo -coordinado por Aita Salinas-, Álvarez muestra su propia visión y experiencia con este trastorno, mediante una instalación que tiene como elemento principal una serie de ilustraciones y además consta de ciertos elementos más tangibles e interactivos que permiten al espectador introducirse mejor en esas imágenes y sensaciones que se exponen.
Sin duda, es uno de los proyectos que mejor definen a Mu-tantes, ideas y conceptos que nacen de lo más profundo del artista y que sin límites, y sin barreras, tienen la necesidad de sacarlo a la luz.25 Pts.
‘Distopía aumentada'Jesús Cobos, diseñador gráfico y animador, llega a Mu-tantes desde Jaén siendo el único artista de la exposición que no reside en Murcia.
Su propuesta - coordinada por Adrián Marzal- pone de manifiesto el constante bombardeo de información y estímulos -publicidad y propaganda- al que está sometida la sociedad.
Una saturación que produce en la población una distracción que le evade de la realidad, provocando que obvie los actos de ética cuestionable o incluso los alimente.
Cobos hila una reflexión en forma de instalación donde la realidad aumentada enseñará al visitante acciones y situaciones que se han convertido en parte de nuestra rutina social, en propaganda visual para nuestros ojos.
25pts es un artista que busca nuevas formas de expresión, nuevas técnicas de comunicación que den paso a un futuro donde ese exceso se revierta en códigos alternativos de diálogo gráfico.Borja Torres.
‘Lefa'¿Qué es la pornografía? ¿Donde están los límites del arte? ¿Dónde nace la belleza? Borja Torres no tiene respuestas, tiene muchas preguntas.
Inquietudes eternas que lo hacen volar por un universo lleno de posibilidades.
Con su propuesta artística, el diseñador gráfico e ilustrador busca descontextualizar la imagen pornográfica y utilizarla para formar parte de un conjunto psicodélico y colorido.
De este modo se invita a reflexionar sobre el poder erótico de las mismas y se intenta romper su uso en el mundo contemporáneo, y especialmente su papel como principal fuente de educación sexual de bolsillo (teléfono móvil).
Este proyecto -coordinado por Roberto Navarro- es una idea viva que muta en la mente de uno de los ilustradores y creativos con más proyección del panorama murciano.
