Linarejos Moreno
Art Forms in Mechanism XX, 2016
archival digital print on Baryta paper, ed. 1/3
75-5/8 x 51-1/4 inches
“Art Forms in Mechanism” began when artist Linarejos Moreno discovered a collection of 19th century botanical models while researching at the Cabinet of Scientific Curiosities, a Spanish historical archive. Manufactured by a European company that specialized in scientific equipment, the models are made of papier-mâché, gears, clips, hooks, and printed numbers and labels, and they were designed for hands on, practical use. Moreno was initially attracted to the models because, as she notes, “they contained the tension between the industrial and the humanity/fragility that I often research in my work. On the one hand, they were machines, with all their gears, on the other hand, even if they were supposed to be neutral scientific objects, they were absolutely pictorial and subjective.”
In photographing the models, Moreno adopts the style of the nature photography of German artist and educator Karl Blossfeldt, which was first published in his landmark 1928 publication of botanical photographs, “Art Forms in Nature.” Blossfeldt’s photographs were innovative in the field of scientific photography because of the leap forward they provided in magnification and detail. These images ultimately served as important sources of inspiration for the scientific community and artists alike.
