Biographies

Bea Aiguabella

Through her practice, Bea Aiguabella explores the dichotomy between individuality and collectiveness. Taking elements of nature as a point of departure, Aiguabella investigates this disjunction through an extensive process of repetition. Using primarily oil sticks on raw linen, textiles, and cotton paper, she creates compositions that invite the viewer to observe what seems like a pure, exclusive act of repetition but is, in fact, a representation of unique elements. This nuance appears throughout the act of observation and raises the question of how many individual elements are needed to create a sense of collectiveness.

She was trained as an architect; hence a sense of geometry and symmetry is embedded in her visual approach. Minimalism is also a crucial concept when understanding Aiguabella’s visual language.

Contemporary Neoseries

Aiguabella works in series that encompass a particular line of visual thought. Her latest series Kokoro conveys the transcendental value of ordinary things. This concept stems from her interest in the way of measuring time in Ancient Greece: Kronos is the qualitative measurement of time, and Kayros refers to its qualitative nature. Hence, Kokoro is a way of bringing together the meaning of both terms.

Hella Jongerius’s mood boards for Vitra and Joseph Albers’s theory of interaction of colour have influenced Aiguabella’s chromatic palette for this series of works. The sequence of shapes and the selection of colours emanate a silent peace, inviting the viewer to reflect upon our everchanging perception and feeling of colour depending on how they are displayed together.

This series is a proposition to adopt a contemplative attitude to grasp the calm playfulness in the acts of repetition.
