OPEN STUDIO: Breathe, even if you don't notice it
Margarita Cancino.
"Breathe, even if you don't notice it” (2024) invites the viewer to immerse themselves in the artistic and spiritual evolution of the work of the artist Margarita Cancino, from the year 2021 to the present, and in her constant interest in expressing spirituality and the beyond.
How to capture these emotions through art? In this journey, the spiral will be the central symbol to which the artist resorts to connect with her representation of the eternal cycle of life. Inspired by Western indigenous philosophy, it invites the viewer to reflect that individual and collective knowledge can begin at any point in the spiral and will never have an end, as the present and the past are permanently connected. Just like life and death.
With this, Margarita reminds us that we are constantly growing, always in motion between death and life. And thus, she invites us to reflect on our origins and our destiny. Through her paintings and sculptures, visitors will be able to witness the process of transformation and connection with the spiritual that the artist has experienced over time.
