_Biography
The work of Nuria Rodríguez (Valencia_España) suggests the artist/collector as a collector of images, objects and curiosities to be transformed and remade, a producer that seeks new places in their collection, to constantly dialogue with them, trying to design a working method that can lead them to the elaboration of new images.
The narrative of his projects traces a random network of relationships between art, science, and nature, focusing on those disciplines that have designed taxonomic processes to name the natural environment and its relationship with human activity. Disciplines such as Botany, Geography, Geology are the focus of his interests. At the same time, it raises a reflection on the archeology of the systems that propose a cataloging of the world of life, showing great difficulty in collecting the palpitating diversity of experiences and questioning the fictions that taxonomies construct.
Recently, he has produced the project “Atlas Naturae: (White Island)” for the IVAM that takes advantage of the stories of the scientific expeditions of the 18th century of the botanical Cavanilles and the explorer James Cook to formalize an installation staging of the paintings, drawings, objects and videos, identifying the analog world with naturalia and the digital world with artificialia. In other proposals such as “Humboldt System. Thinking/Painting ” at the La Nau Cultural Center (Valencia, 2020), “Chronologies of chance” at Shiras gallery (Valencia, 2017) and “Natural History, the infinite collection” at Estampa gallery (Madrid, 2015), raises a reflection on human action in the ecosystems it inhabits.
His work is complemented by teaching and research at the Polytechnic University of Valencia. She has received the 2018 Senyera Visual Arts Award and is the author of the essay “Los textos de la mujer artista durante las primeras vanguardias” (The Texts of the Woman Artist During the First Avant-Gardes) (1900-1945), published by the Alfons el Magnànim Institution, which focuses on the recovery of the memory of the woman artist through her writings.
