Lucía C. Pino. Non-Slave Tenderness

Lucía C. Pino constructs a futuristic island where waste materials and organic elements symbiotically entwined

Non-Slave Tenderness is an experimental sculptural project in which tubes, glass, light, sounds, space, and people are freed from the hierarchies that usually bind them and relate to each other in new ways.

Echoing works of science fiction and theoretical research, the artist transforms the Fundació Joan Miró’s Espai 13 into an imagined insular landscape, made up of compact sediments, in which to experimentally rewrite our links to matter.

It is the third show in The Possibility of an Island, the exhibition program for the 2017-2018 season at Fundació Joan Miró’s Espai 13, organized in collaboration with Fundació Banc Sabadell. Curated by Alexandra Laudo, the project explores some of the symbolic and sociocultural meanings that have historically been associated with a paradigmatic space in the collective imaginary: the island.
