For our second exhibition of the season, we present a joint project by Lucía Tello (Seville, 1996) and Jose Casas (Blanes, 1995). The work of both – at first glance opposite – shares a common well: the nooks of childhood as a concept happily generalized. Lucía's paintings framed on a canvas and Jose's works that can either come out of the ground or go from the wall to the ceiling, represent those hidden corners in which both practices delve into until arriving to the infantile cosmogony, lived from the child itself; the terror of being, how absurd the adult logic can be seen from an infant, all with a melancholy cast caused by the loss of that innocence.
Through this union of practices we return to how languages in painting can speak of universal things from strongly particular perspectives.
We are very grateful for the collaboration of Badr El Jundi gallery for the participation of Lucía Tello in this exhibition. Likewise, we deeply appreciate the introduction to the work of Jose Casas by Lucía Tello.

Mariposa y Murciélago (Butterfly and Bat) is a clash between opposites that nevertheless seem to point in the same direction:
In this proposal, the room is conceived as the meeting point between two well-differentiated natures that nonetheless combine a common way of seeing and perceiving […]
There is a strong notion of one in the other: in Lucía's work the conception of pictorial space is especially relevant, while in Jose’s, a pictorial sensibility is distinguished in his way of intervening the space.
This contrast is perceived as a closing of the visual circle, which somehow fits together like a chord. The notion of the infantile floods the shared vision in a primitive search offered by the image […]
A bat and a butterfly give the mental image of this union. The formal distance of our works is sealed in the atmosphere embraced by them.
