Mercedes Maga Estrella de la Mañana. Mercedes Azpilicueta

Under the name Mercedes Maga Estrella de la Mañana, Argentinian artist Mercedes Azpilicueta presents a group of new works in Prats Nogueras Blanchard –encompassing painting, drawing and sculpture– that explore the idea of multiplicity within one’s self. Bringing together diverse characters from the past and present is a common gesture within the artist’s practice; the gesture of painting is a sounding board for the echo of the past. Mercedes Maga Estrella de la Mañana moves in a spiral, revisiting performance scores, textile and furniture sculptures, revealing traces of other lives, giving them new voices.
