Description

From the Cartographies series   Embroidery on canvas (map) Unframed

In the mid-2000s, Ana Seggiaro made her first small-scale collage works on paper. Starting from pages of books, maps, and scores, she carries out the first series intervened through embroidery and painting. In these works she finds the universe of cartography, using maps as supports for the construction of imaginary geographies. This search leads her to tackle larger works. Thus, she recovers old school maps worn by use, where the black rubber acquires a broken texture, generating a topography like that of skin dried by the sun. She intervenes in these maps with abstract figures and images of paper airplanes that fly over unknown landscapes.

This artwork presents a compelling fusion of cartography and abstract art, redefining the traditional map of Europe. Dark, shadowy hues form the backdrop, evoking a sense of mystery. Intricately woven, spherical mesh structures overlay the map, each varying in texture and color, ranging from ethereal whites to warm earth tones. These spheres suggest dynamic energy and movement, challenging notions of geographical boundaries. The careful balance between the delicate mesh and robust map lines offers a brilliant interplay between stability and fluidity. This piece stands out for its innovative approach, using geometric abstraction to convey themes of connectivity and transformation across Europe. The interplay of opacity and transparency adds depth and intrigue, inviting viewers to explore both the known and the speculative within this captivating reimagining of a continent.

Presentation

Tending relations between geographically distant cultures and, at the same time, stressing the temporal gap that separates them, is the meaning of Ana Seggiaro's work, based on the engravings of Alberto Dürer, Piranesi and Albinus.

For the artist, European art is the paradigm that she has built, from that training she has resignified her works, submitting them to her consideration and leaving an embroidered mark that marks a different path from the one originally created.

In the process of creation, she takes the images that interest her, investigates its history, answers questions such as what the artist wanted to say or if she simply made it by chance. The next thing is to photograph it and modify it digitally, either by adding color or removing details to create a collage. Once the final image has been decided, a print is made on fine art canvas to begin the hand embroidery process. In the last year, in addition to embroidering, she has decided to paint over the image.

Ana Seggiaro was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Initially pictorial in nature, in its different stages, her work was exploring and incorporating new materials and media that complemented the oil and engraving that are the basis of its origin. She graduated in drawing and engraving from the Prilidiano Pueyrredón National School of Fine Arts in 1988.
