Jesús Chacón - Instants/Invisibles
Artist Biography:
In the first of the series exhibited, Instantes/Invisibles, Chacón isolates the walkers, placing them in a scenario devoid of any sign that might evoke their surroundings. Passers-by in an infinite space, where all hint of the city has been suppressed, each one appears accompanied only by his own shadow. Nothing is known about them, where they are going, whether they are going or coming back, whether they are happy or sad... Vita Sackville-West said that "In the shadow of a man walking there are more enigmas than in all the religions of the world". All are questions for the viewer who, observing each small character, begins to be aware of his own bewilderment in the face of cities that unfortunately are becoming less and less human, of the dissolution of the self in spaces that are extremely alien to him. Paradoxically, in Chacón's photographs, only the dialogue with their shadows seems to anchor them to themselves and to a certain reality, within that city transformed into an infinite cyclorama lacking all perspective. Here the shadow becomes a metaphor for the destiny we carry or perhaps for the soul embedded in our body, which we only sometimes allow to guide us as in Sodô's haiku.
