Blue Bags * Translatorial Carriers

 

The Blue Bags are neither props nor leftovers; they are translators. Each bag moves like a silent agent across streets, exhibitions, and performances, converting mundane tasks—shopping, transporting, wrapping—into sculptural acts of relation. In Lloveras's hands, they become unstable social sculptures, always in use, always in flux. Positioned on market floors, rooftops, benches, and sand, their humble plastic form reveals the complexity of context: art as need, color as code, utility as ethics. They speak to fragility, accumulation, and survival—too fragile to last, too precise to ignore. Blue Bags resist enclosure. They are deployed, reused, folded into new rituals or given away. As translatorial forms, they convert sites into sentences, situations into syntax. The work is not what’s inside but how it's carried, how it’s shared.

HIDDEN FORCES:::::::::::::::::::NO TAG_________________SUPREMATISM AND DUNES_____________________ CÁDIZ 2019

Along the windswept periphery of Cádiz, an ordinary beach barrier becomes the site of a discreet yet poetic intervention, where a black identification tag is carefully removed, revealing instead a white monochrome that resonates with the tonal palette of the surrounding sand and sea mist, subtly merging the sculptural object into the larger coastal tableau. This gesture, minimalist in form yet conceptually dense, operates within the logic of hidden works, those that do not impose but instead recede into the environment, altering it through near-invisibility rather than spectacle. As a fleeting manifestation of Suprematism in the dunes, the altered barrier proposes a radical rethinking of public space aesthetics, where utility yields to quiet abstraction and signage becomes silence. This act, seemingly minor, challenges the ubiquity of functional signage by turning it into an unannounced artwork, a monochromatic fragment of a larger, unseen composition that stretches across the coastal scape. Echoing the lineage of non-objective art, the work privileges sensation over message, offering a contemplative loop in which form and context coalesce. Captured in a 60-second video loop, exhibited at LAPIEZA GALLERY, this piece is not only a film but a site-specific meditation, anchored in the supernatural atmosphere of Cádiz, where dunes act as a canvas and the wind becomes a collaborator. The viewer is invited not just to see but to sense the shift—an ephemeral artwork that leaves behind no plaque, only a pause in the landscape, an environmental punctuation that briefly renders the everyday extraordinary.
