Summary
Jose Dávila (Guadalajara, 1974) has developed a vast sculptural oeuvre regulated by a series of work propositions that explore the relationships between materials and objects, symbols and meanings, to produce new articulations between them. In the exhibition and project Pensar como una montaña (Thinking like a mountain), produced specically for Museo Amparo, Dávila starts with the question about the material and phenomenological quality of the stone, one of the original elements, not only in sculpture but also culturally. An element that arises from nature and is in nature; also used by human beings to erect its buildings, while in time it survives as a vestige. The research undertaken by the artist for this project, originates from a wide range of visual and historical references, as well as from a reaction on the production processes where the work in the Studio plays a central role to investigate and experiment.
