Art of Philadelphia exhibition by Raquel Montilla Higgins refers us to an emotional space where dualisms vertical-horizontal, visual-tactile, organic-synthetic, inside-outside, partial-total, invite the spectator to interrogate himself about his own nature. This withdrawal to the interior, triggered by the artist leads to Martin Heidegger’s existentialism.
Raquel takes us to an inhabited place filled with memories of his childhood where there is no room left for mathematics or geometry.
All in all, her work generates a space linked to mankind through vital relationships, and where each place carries a special meaning.
