Originally commissioned by the Arts Council’s DMZ festival, ’13′ consisted of 13 drawings sent out by email over 13 days traveling along the A13 urban freeway. The drawings will later become the basis of a short film commissioned by Channel 4 to be broadcast this autumn.
perpetual storytelling apparatus
The “Perpetual Storytelling Apparatus” is a drawing machine illustrating a never-ending story by the use of patent drawings. The machine translates words of a text into patent drawings. Seven million patents — linked by over 22 million references — form the vocabulary. By using references to earlier patents, it is possible to find paths between arbitrary patents. They form a kind of subtext. New visual connections and narrative layers emerge through the interweaving of the story with the depiction of technical developments.

mental landscapes in transformation
interview with fernando gutiérrez, whose award-winning installation crisálidas is on view at la boral in gijon (spain) until april 6. sketchy drawings and animations based on images from mass media are projected and layered in unpredictable ways, generating subjective associations and a parallel world for viewers to participate in.
Crisálidas is part of a body of work based on the metamorphoses that small things submit us to. Such as going on a trip and coming back with the accent of the place we’ve just visited. We constantly reconfigure ourselves because of our empathic nervous system. Similarly, the drawings of Crisálidas contaminate each other in a process made of articulated collages, in which everyday images that we see in the media intervene. The selection of images is subjective and capricious, forming a visual diary of a reality that has been filtered to the point of intimacy.
