Vision_2

In this "vision", we contemplate a human eye trapped in a cave, covered with an organic and transparent membrane that breathes to the rhythm of a heartbeat. Marina Nunez refers us to allegories and myths as a representation of the dream. The artist allusively refers to the myth of the cave of Plato, with the human vision as an illusion. The torment of the confinement is however compensated by a certain incipient, latent organism aspect. Is it a dream or a nightmare? For sure, orinic.

Marina Núñez iconography is related to myths and technoscience, depicting hybrid or even monstrous beings; those who exist on the fringe or outside the canon. Her characters, belonging to the territory of the excluded, are not distant from us but affect us and identify us.
