Serie Micra 2016

Here is the script: Requena Nozal's "Serie Micra" presents a striking field of blue that fractures into a network of interconnected shapes. The electric blue calls to mind Yves Klein's patented ultramarine, a color meant to evoke a sense of boundless space and spiritual depth. Yet, the web-like structure underneath teases at something more primal. We see patterns reminiscent of neural networks, or perhaps even the branching of a tree. Across cultures, trees represent the interconnectedness of life, wisdom, and growth. The dark background pushes forward the idea of the subconscious. These symbols are passed down through history, shifting in meaning but always resonating with our deepest understanding of the self and the world. This image, then, engages us on a subconscious level, calling forth powerful associations and evoking a sense of wonder at the hidden structures that underlie our reality.
