David Catá - Neither with me nor without me
Artist Biography: David Catá's work establishes a game between personal memory and the creative act. A temporary act that is recorded through photography, video, painting and even sculpture. The evocative power of personal objects and photographs in his family album serve as inspiration. Through them, he reflects on time, memory and the way to delay the process of forgetting, using ephemeral elements such as ice, thread, dandelions, salt... Sometimes it is her own body that becomes the artistic support of her environment and her experiences. The stitches and fissures made on her skin are intended to be a metaphor for the indissoluble symbiosis between the passage of time and oblivion. His work aspires to the preservation of past time through the memorial, corporeal, photographic, videographic trace... It is a work that goes beyond an aesthetic search. Her performance videos are a cathartic exercise, in them she confronts the oblivion and sadness that the lack of the loved one leaves us, "making flesh" the suffering is physically detached from it once and for all. The ephemerality of life, the physical and immaterial imprint, the pain... they are closely linked to his work. "Everyone we meet marks us in some way. His image is projected onto us, reminding us of where we came from. Their lives become part of ours. Each stitch on my skin represents them, physical pain is not a border, it unites us more, thinking that my hand has been marked in an act of affection; to think that at the time my hand has touched his hand."
