Totems & Relics

Cervera del Maestre From September 18, 2023 to October 10, 2023

Presentation
A duo exhibition of works from Sonia Domenech and J.Kesin. The works of both artists on show examine the relationship between humans and animals through time. Domenech looks at the topic from the perspective of the past, drawing on symbology and the powers attributed to animals in ancient cultures, thus thematising the shift of modern societies away from the respect that used to be given to nature and the planet.
Kesín 's works of his series 'Future Relics' look from the present to the future and back again. The first layers of each work deal with the present situation and the industry of mass production of animal 'products'. These contain items that may become the 'future relics' - cages, weapons, hooks, egg cartons... Overlayed are messages containing symbols or script that are relayed to us back from an imaginary future society which has long abandoned the use of animal products.
