Livia Marín - Broken Things (u_i)
Artist Biography: Livia Marin is a contemporary Chilean artist, born in 1973, who currently resides and works in London. Her work focuses on exploring themes related to identity, memory, and transformation. Through her work, Marin has demonstrated an ability to transform everyday objects into intriguing and provocative works of art. Marin is known for her "Nomad Patterns" series, in which she transforms ceramic plates into sculptures that appear to melt. Each plate is transformed into a unique and surreal piece, in which the molten ceramics take on a new shape and texture. In addition, his "Broken Things" series explores the beauty of broken objects and their ability to tell stories. In this series, Marin collects broken objects and turns them into works of art, in which the breakage becomes an integral part of the piece.
The series, Broken Things, is made from fragments of everyday objects -cups, bowls, jars, pots and the like- that appear as indeterminately staged between something that is about to collapse or that has just been restored; between things that have been invested with the attention of care but that also have the appearance of a ruin. These works are intended to reflect on aspects of loss and care, disposal and preservation, and on the relationship we develop with the everyday objects that populate our daily lives.
