About the Item
THE DESERTED CITY - THE DRAGON
“In Tokyo, in San Francisco, in Berlin, I recall it as a terrifying nightmare, from which perhaps I wouldn’t like to awake. And I feel punctured by wistful melancholy, by a great desire to see it again.”
The Deserted City is a series of sculptural constructions in homage to "GOG", the book by Giovanni Papini, 1881-1956.
ARCHITECTURAL AND ENIGMATIC. DRAMATIC. DARK. CRUDE. BALANCED. BRUTALISTIC. ATEMPORAL.
The sculptures in The Deserted City speak of labyrinths and impossible constructions, where the very vision of the pieces can be confusing. The pieces can be placed in various positions, taking shapes that play with the viewer's mind through gaps and protrusions.
In them, light and shadow have a fundamental aesthetic and harmonic value, which makes the mind wander, transporting it to a space-time lost in the confines of known civilisation.

Las Animas
COLLECTIBLE FUNCTIONAL ART LAS ÁNIMAS (before: Antoñito y Manolín) are Trini Salamanca and Pablo Párraga, a creative duo founded and established in Seville, Spain. Their work has a strong symbolic, mystical, tribal and esoteric component, and moves on the frontiers between art and design. Using a language of minimalist, geometric and iterative patterns, they experiment with the materials, their forms and textures, to create an iconography of retrofuturist, transgressor, brutalist and deeply evocative aesthetics. The couple’s visual and emotional universe includes references as distant as science fiction, anthropology, the distortion of reality, cybernetics, duality, experimental electronic music, or architectural brutality; an imaginary that joins the elements of their social environment, recoding and projecting them from an atypical and personal insight. Their corpus includes limited edition pieces of furniture, sculptures, interventions and unique objects. TOTEMS, designed and created by themselves in their own studio, that challenge functionality and form; a symbolic Aesthetics dimension full of emotions that lead to a spiritual atmosphere lost in time.
