Description

BERTA JAYO (Santander, 1971). "Purple canvas with holes", 2003. Mixed media on canvas. Presents label of the gallery Siboney (Santander). Measurements: 195 x 195 cm. In this large format work, the artist perforates the support, introducing in the work a vacuum that allows the viewer to see behind these holes. Thus rethinking a two-dimensional object through space, giving it elements of sculpture, such as the interaction of the object with the contextual space in an active way. These large moles, are a resource widely used in the work of Berta Jayo, who through her performances, or series such as "Portraits and clothes", presents to the viewer this pattern so associated with Spain, but from a contemporary point of view that reflects on identity and tradition. Berta Jayo is a multidisciplinary artist who began her studies in Fine Arts at the University of Bilbao, where she graduated with honors. She later pursued postgraduate and master's studies in Fine Arts at the Chelsea College of Art and Design in London. She has participated in numerous programs such as ISCP (International studio and Curational Program) New York. As described on her website she is a non-conformist, critical and talented creator in continuous evolution whose clearest language is conceptual art developed in a wide variety of media. Her clear and concise ideas encourage reflection, which also disturbs and provokes our intellect. His original projects, charged with power, awaken our anesthetized and banal existence to offer us his visions of life far from stereotypes. His work has been exhibited in many countries and has been shown at International Art Fairs such as ARCO Madrid, SWAB Barcelona, FRIEZE London, PULSE New York, Art BASEL Switzerland, 57th Venice Biennale, Documenta 14 Kassel Germany, in International Festivals like Video Screen Festival in Berlin or New Media Festival HACS Miami, in public spaces or Museums like MAM RD, MAS, The Chill Concept Museum Miami, CAC Malaga, CAM Naples, Bronx Museum NYC, Reina Sofia, Tate Modern, Guggenheim Bilbao, MoMA, Louvre Paris. Other relevant exhibitions are: 'Exquisite Doll Kit' Mexico itinerant, 'Artistas del siglo XX y XXI', itinerant, Sala Robayera, 'Ellas' Madrid, itinerant, Void + Tokyo, Japan. Presents label of the Siboney Gallery (Santander).
