About this artwork
In Guardians of the Threshold, the cloaked female figure and the two ethereal girls embody a transition between worlds: a space where the visible dissolves and the sacred is just beginning to reveal itself. Their combined presence functions as a living threshold, a symbolic border between ruin and possibility, between what collapses and what attempts to be born.
The girls—light, almost translucent—appear as liminal presences: bearers of a fragile… light that doesn't fully illuminate, but persists nonetheless. The woman, in her cloak that blends with the space, acts as protector and mediator, holding both in that intermediate state that the series explores. There is no explicit narrative, but rather an atmosphere of waiting, of suspended breath, as if the three were guarding a secret about to be revealed.
The work fits into the logic of the Liminal exhibition by being situated in that territory where nothing is definitive.
« I feel the need to see what is on the other side of things, the eternal search to know that there is something beyond what we can perceive. »
Cris Fuentes is a visual artist specializing in painting, based in Argentina, whose works have been widely exhibited nationally, as well as in Italy, Nepal, Ecuador, Denmark, Mexico, Chile, and Brazil. She describes her art as based on action painting, which has converged with expressionism, in which figuration and abstraction complement each other, "blurring a possible boundary between one language and another." A nostalgia for absences and a sense that art is about filling a void have always been present in her works. Her artistic need could not be expressed in any other way than through gestures, with the power of a brushstroke. The figure of the ruin, from a material and conceptual perspective, has appealed to her as a representation of vestiges. Interestingly, ruins constitute metaphors for what interests her as an artist: inner states and the act of immersing oneself within only to re-emerge.
