Around thirty paintings and sculptures by Laura Iniesta (Barcelona, 1955) will be on display until the end of April at the Enric Monjo Museum in Vilassar de Mar. The exhibition, entitled The Back Room, is made up of works created by the artist over the last ten years, as well as some new creations.
With this exhibition, Iniesta takes us back to the past, to the subconscious, to all those mental images born and developed throughout life, to that place where our fears, our whys and our most hidden desires coexist in secret, and where there are no more rules than those marked by the gaze. With the title The Back Room, Laura Iniesta delves into her personal world. A world where the subconscious tells us that abstraction can be expressed in different ways, all of them within a universe where reality is perceived internally, fleeing from everything that is dispensable to reach the essential, such as creativity and imagination, as we can see in this exhibition.
According to the exhibition curator, Ramón Casalé Soler , “his work leaves no one indifferent, because his painting is open, free and passionate, where countless aspects of everyday life emerge, although they are not visible at first glance, but which are somehow present, whether through the stain, the stroke, the collage, the calligraphy, the matter or simply the line that crosses the space. In addition, the empty space acquires more prominence compared to previous stages, as does the use of black and white, which gives us the idea that there is a certain formal synthesis. However, there are a series of symbolic elements whose true meaning only the artist herself knows”, and adds that “it is true that Laura Iniesta makes us understand that her work is a kind of mirror that reflects her most intimate world, whether it refers to her most recent work or to previous periods, when she entered the realm of figuration through hyperrealism and magical realism”.
