Natural Flow Series n15 and n16, Diptych, 2024

Rosario Briones  

Flow is the ability of liquids to continually move from one place to another. Also, It means accepting each situation as it is. The movement of the liquid comes from life, it is natural. His path is genuine, authentic, determined. Water is the main flowing element, It circulates and takes the shape it needs. It expands without limits, in total freedom. The artist feels that the same thing happens with her way of working. The material is alive, it forces her to adapt to it and, together with their creativity, converge, unite in a common place. Then the work accepts what it is. A hypnotic movement. A permanent surprise. In her work, Rosario Briones uses the path of her body that becomes shapes, and the shapes, an indication of the artistic process, of the material choreography directed by the emotion of the body, where an intimate experience is hidden and glimpsed. The fluidity of her paintings finds no structure. Exploring the same procedure in different supports such as papers and fabrics. The artist is interested in the infinite possibilities that offer her the material, its porosities, weaves, thicknesses and different capacities of absorption, they return images that are not in her head. Signed for a game of tensions, a fight between forces, given by the accumulations of pigment, the transparencies, the forms and their search for balance. Sometimes controlled and other times more chance, they become a record of a living materiality. From the Natural Flow series Inks on canvas Overall size: 110 H x 157 W cm.
