This is a photograph part of a huge body of work of photography taken during the production of my glass sculpture series "Concrete Suite" (2017-2021) made at Urban Glass (NY). While casting the glass, cleaning it and sanding it, the interactions with the water and light were so gorgeous that I started photographing the whole process, creating original works every time I went to the studio, as opposed to the very slow process of the glass making for four years.

 

I am still not sure which one is better, the glass or the photography! 

 

I am selling at a reduced price 6 copies at a medium format (99.5 x 69.5cm) of each 4 photographs to inaugurate my online store!

 

 

Esta fotografía forma parte de un extenso trabajo fotográfico tomado durante la producción de mi serie de esculturas en vidrio "Concrete Suite" (2017-2021) realizada en Urban Glass (NY). Mientras moldeaba el vidrio, lo limpiaba y lijaba, las interacciones con el agua y la luz fueron tan maravillosas que comencé a fotografiar todo el proceso, creando obras originales cada vez que iba al estudio, a diferencia del lento proceso de producir el vidrio durante cuatro años.

 

¡Todavía no estoy seguro de cuál es mejor, si el cristal o la fotografía!

 

Pongo a la venta a precio reducido 6 ejemplares en formato medio (99,5 x 69,5cm) de cada una de las 4 fotografías para inaugurar mi tienda online!

Idée Fixe  is a Transdisciplinary Studio of Art and Architecture, run by Cristina Guadalupe Galván.

If in a website you normally find finished objects and products to share, what we are sharing here are more ideas – tested, developed and lived -- and their processes, that in many instances ended up happily physical. The creative process is about experimentation and the life that goes with it. The life and the people.

While building this site I came across a quote that explained it to me much better, by architects Josep Ferrando & Marta Poch, for their Quaderns d´Arquitectura, issue 273, THE THINKING TRADE:

      In a world dominated by images of the finished object and the immediacy of access to multimedia content, this issue of Quaderns sets out to reflect on the role of the architect –by means of their working processes, of the working methods (…) leaving the image of the built project on the background.

For artist Sol LeWitt, the process was also the work:

      The idea becomes a machine that makes the art. (...) It is the process of conception and realization with which the artist is concerned. 

Architect Josep Maria Sostres said something similar:

      The project, obviously as a mental conception, as a will to form, has a sovereignty, it has an internal power that must be imposed.

So this archive-website of Idee-Fixe, records more these ideas, processes and in many instances the collaborations that made them possible.

It´s about THE LIFE OF IDEAS.
