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?
