"The thunderbolt brought down to earth the first fire for mortals; starting from the thunderbolt spread all the ardor of the flames."
Lucretius, De rerum natura, s.Y BC.
Between August 4 and 5, 2023 a fire burned more than 500 hectares of mountain between Portbou and Colera. In a few hours the natural landscape as it had existed was completely exterminated by the flames fanned by the tramontana. The transforming capacity of fire, generating both destruction and rebirth, transience and eternity, as well as its link with the primitive and atavistic, is the starting point of Laia Noal's work,...

Two years ago a 'minerva' fell from the sky to Tinta Invisible, which is the generic name for a typographic cliché printing machine. As a piece it is a marvel, a piece of iron that synchronizes a curve of rhythmic movements to print papers.
The pedal drives a toothed gear wheel. The majestic weighty flywheel begins to hover. With the inertia generated, it inks the rubber reels that comb the types of the text box, in the hour that the tympanum - the bed of the sheet of paper - moves with a soft stroke to make the printing a reality.
We needed a pretext to set the 'minerva' in motion, aware that it is precisely the use to which the tool is put that gives it meaning. We let ourselves be inspired by the idea of the exquisite corpse of the surrealists, who were masters of playing. They passed drawings covered by sheets where only the final part was shown, this part of the drawing invited...

Any artistic expression is also political, because it expresses itself from the place and at the moment it interprets. Creation is born from the vital impulse to speak of certainties, intuitions or feelings with its own look, at the same time that it provokes in the spectator a critical reflection that completes it. Nothing is new, the past is present and if we are attentive it explains to us where we are.
This poster is the metaphor of a desire and says it all with a dry blow of ganiveta, the explosive longing, the neck to earth and the many desires to subvert the anachronisms of the structures of power.
