Aus der "Tablas" Serie. 1970er
Wollgarn auf Holz, bedeckt mit Campeche-Wachs
Eduardo Terrazas seeks to understand and reflect on a changing reality, proposing alternative methods for inhabiting and being and new ways of looking. The "Tablas" series was made in the 1970s, a period when Terrazas was interested in integrating pre-Hispanic indigenous crafts, Mexican popular culture and contemporary theories of art. The works employ a Huichol yarn-painting technique, in which coloured wool is applied to wood panels covered with Campeche wax, to create compositions influenced by abstract painting, architecture and design. Terrazas’s forms present a geometric conceptualisation of the world, but in their intense colours, they reflect culture as a daily pulse of space and sensuality.
