Historically, the promise of art presupposes a sense of intimacy. "Art is insight," I once heard. But the rules have changed. Over time, the viewer becomes increasingly inaccessible to know the artist as a person through his work. With it this is hidden, not shown. The system ends up operating as a sort of blindness. The same happens with those who attend the spaces of artistic appreciation, when we are all together, we seem to have fallen into the same character. Space is our stage.
In Myopia, we wanted to insert a bit of "feeling" into the intimacy of the experience of not only making art but also showing it and appreciating it, proposing a space that does not seek to impose itself before the public but to dialogue with it - to live the fair together. To this space we call it "The Camerín," an interactive installation that operates as time-out, behind-the-scenes oasis between the social scene and the academic scenario that is lived in PARC. The space to show you as a person. Come on in, tell me everything and please exaggerate.
Myopia is a hybrid between a bilingual web magazine and an artistic collective. Founded by Anaïs Lalombriz in Lima in October of last year, www.myopia.media includes the work of a transdisciplinary team of young people distributed between Lima, Bogota and New York. Its main objective is to restore freshness to culture.
In this project participated Romina Cordova, Luis Miguel Revoredo and Gabriela Aquije in Architecture, Luis Enrique Zela-Koort and Miguel Quiñones in Design and Technology, Andrés Bragagnini, Gisselle Girón, Roberto Espinoza, Rodrigo Barrios and Mateo Llosa in the development of the concept, Alejandro Roca Rey and Antonio de Loayza in the documentation and registration and Anaïs Lalombriz in the user experience, graphic line and curator of the experience.
