ABOUT THE ARTWORK

‘Portraits without apparent faces’ is a series that reflects a personal vision of some important contemporary themes. According to me it represents a sum of questions and problems about the coexistence of different ways of interacting in between humans. What can be seen as scandalous for someone maybe it is not for others. The sublime and the ridiculous, the solemn and the laughable, the violent and the exquisite come together in time and space. I’m interested in exploring the everyday scenes, the habits that we do almost impulsively without really thinking about them. I want to transform this insignificant moment in reflection through my art to generate different meanings. There is not one single person in the universe that has a cartography similar to another, the cartography is just like a fingerprint. We undertake several paths in our daily lives and we do it voluntarily or because we are obligated. I go out and I take pictures of legs and afterwards I paint those images on canvas using different techniques and styles in order to transmit the physical and mental heterogeneity. Sometimes a simple gesture reveals who we are. My goal is to make people understand that they are involved in history, the spectator should approach my paintings as looking himself in the mirror and undertakes a point of view from his own reality. This series is an attempt to capture times and cultures.

Yalili Mora ( Cuba, 1972) is a visual artist based in Barcelona. She has earned a BA from the National School of Fine Arts in Havana, Cuba. She is a former member of the extinct Cuban collectives Grupo Punto and Coordenada Arte-Sur. Among her solo shows are included Portraits without Apparent Faces at the Cultural Centre Sant Agustí, Barcelona, Spain (2021) and Installations at the Ludwig Foundation (1999); as for her participation in group shows, Yalili Mora’s work has been included in Art Nostre 19, Alicante Biennial of Visual Arts, Spain (2021); Inventario: Grupo Punto 20 años at the Ludwig Foundation in Havana, Cuba (2015) and While Cuba Waits: Art from the Nineties at Track 16 Gallery, Los Angeles, USA (1999). El Proyecto 'retratos sin rostros aparentes' pretende ser un trabajo en progreso. Nunca tuve la intención de pintar retratos physiognomic. Mi idea era cambiar el concepto del retrato tradicional en el que el rostro y la expresión son los protagonistas y por eso empezó esta transformación hacia un retrato más 'tipológico' en el que los detalles, la ropa y los objetos que se relacionan con el la persona y su cuerpo son los rasgos que permiten comprender la historia y la clase social del sujeto retratado. La esencia de la serie queda en la parte invisible del cuerpo, en los rostros no aparentes, lo que permite al espectador crear su propia idea sobre el tema ayudado también por los detalles de la parte inferior del cuerpo. Además, me gusta resaltar la esencialidad de las piernas porque son el medio por el que nos movemos. Nos permiten ponernos de pie o movernos, nos permiten ser independientes, correr y saltar. Y además de sostener nuestro peso protegen y guían nuestra historia personal. Cada una de mis realizaciones artísticas son la consecuencia de experiencias vivenciales. Me planteo ante todo un cuestionamiento en cuanto al arte, y tiene que ver con su funcionalidad, capacidad de reflexión, responsabilidad y/o acción simbólica. Como artista realizo obras en base a la idea que tengo, y utilizo el material de acuerdo a su significado implicándolo en el concepto de la obra de alguna manera. Creo que tal vez por esta forma de pensar no tengo como suelen decir algunos una línea de trabajo, ni mi obra puede ser reconocible por esta vía, y es que no me caso con un material específico, todo gira en torno a lo que quiera transmitir. Me atrae hacer giros temáticos en mi obra, sin olvidar las ideas conceptuales.
