Hugo Lugo
Hugo Lugo, "Recordar el camino (36-37)", Figurative, Diptych

2014

About the Item

Hugo’s artworks tend to have an “onirical/metaphorical” feel to them. These pieces are the original drawings of the artist's book titled “Recordar el Camino” (remember the way), a work that Lugo produced in a unique way, accompanied by the notes and reflections of the renowned Mexican writer Jorge Volpi. It has been reproduced as a publishing project in a limited edition. Between fiction and reality, they make a non-linear, non-narrative journey through the extensive map of works that the artist has dedicated to exploring the medium -particularly paper- as part of an investigation on the interlacing of surfaces and representation. The reflection reads “Under the snow, the red briefcase becomes a blue briefcase. And the man still can't find the key. Has she kept it - the woman in white hiding on the other side of the page?” I find the figure of the man waiting and shivering instead of actively searching a very interesting attitude. When he can't find the keys to a briefcase he owns, there is a possibility “the woman” who is not seen has. Frozen there but with a clear idea of knowing where to look for the keys yet incapable of doing so. What is inside this briefcase that appears in different opportunities throughout the book?

    Ink, oil bar and gouache on Mulberry paper 27 3/5 × 59 1/10 in 70 × 150 cm This is a unique work. This work includes a Certificate of Authenticity. Provenance: Owned by artist Humans, including myself, live in relationships with each other. The concerns that began with myself led to concerns about relationships with others. Even if I want to be alone, I can't be alone and I'm always with someone. It refers to feelings of emptiness and anxiety arising from individual and individual relationships between individuals and groups. The human shape of the black dot represents me, you, or us. The mask used to live and the numerous faces created to avoid being caught are in the "black dot." The emptiness that comes from relationships with others and the collapse of expectations.
