María José Arjona

Art, body and nature

Prometeogallery is pleased to present a solo show of Maria José Arjona (Bogotá, Colombia, 1973) focused on the natural elements as a mirror and at the same time a key to interpreting human reality in a poetic way. Maria José Arjona’s research is aimed at exploring the potential of the body meant as a live entity capable of feeling, of acting and reacting. A body that becomes a powerful means of visual communication, an exchange of symbolic energy between the artist and the audience, and a conscious producer of meaning. It is a body that, through minimal, non–hierarchized gestures, investigates the concepts of context and time. A “universal” body, removed from its own personal experience and from any particular social or political context of belonging.
