JORGE ISLA ‘Es Lo Que Hay’ @scgallery_bilbao Bilbao ‘…As an exercise, let’s think about how many images have passed through the screen of our phone, of our black square. Let’s think, to give it a volume, how many sheets of paper we would need to print each image that has lived on our screen, even if only for a few moments: photos, videos, gifs, memes… What would that tower of paper be like, that immeasurable tower of sheets? Now, let’s add to our tower the amount of text read and written… and why not, let’s transcribe the conversations and audios we have sent and add it to the pile of paper. Well… when we see one of Jorge Isla’s black squares, built through accumulation, we are not only presented with a question of accumulation of emptiness… but of saturation. Those screens are not broken, they are finished. As an exercise, let’s imagine the towers of sheets that the images and the rest of the contents that have passed through the screens of one of those Jorge Isla’s black squares would occupy. Let’s envision the amount of images that make up the whole exhibition. An exhibition developed by black squares based on millions of images.’ #jorgeisla #scgallery #bilbao #installationart #contemporaryart (en SC Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZ5VLmys0wf/?utm_medium=tumblr
