Cement Eclipses

di Simona Picchi e Andrea Gnesutta

Isaac Cordal è un artista spagnolo, per la precisione un urban artist; negli ultimi anni ha dedicato le sue energie al progetto Cement Eclipses, che prevede la realizzazione di installazioni miniaturizzate inserite nel contesto di grandi città. L’elemento unificante di queste installazioni è l’utilizzo di un personaggio (una piccola statuina di uomo sempre uguale) che viene ospitato in angoli nascosti della città: dentro un’aiuola, in fila davanti ad un buco nel muro, sotto dei sassi, mentre cammina su un cornicione.

Le opere  di Isaac sono un misto di gioco, ironia ma anche riflessione sull’umanità contemporanea.

Intervención VII Blanca 2025

15 Marzo 13h

Durante una semana los artistas invitados para esta séptima intervención se centran en la idea de “especular” sobre posibles realidades en Blanca en los próximos 10 años.

Las sociedades actuales están relacionadas con el miedo, la violencia y esa extraña sensación de inseguridad propia del capitalismo, podemos pensar en el lugar al que se va conduciendo la presencia de una crisis global que afecta, no sólo a nuestra condición como ciudadanos, si no a nuestra actitud política en referencia a esa promesa de felicidad asociada al estado de bienestar. Partimos de reflexionar sobre el presente con proyección futura inmediata. (Txt extraído de la nota de prensa)

With the simple act of miniaturization and thoughtful placement, Isaac Cordal magically expands the imagination of pedestrians finding his sculptures on the street. Cement Eclipses is a critical definition of our behavior as a social mass. The art work intends to catch the attention on our devalued relation with the nature through a critical look to the collateral effects of our evolution. With the master touch of a stage director, the figures are placed in locations that quickly open doors to other worlds. The scenes zoom in the routine tasks of the contemporary human being.

Men and women are suspended and isolated in a motion or pose that can take on multiple meanings. The sympathetic figures are easy to relate to and to laugh with. They present fragments in which the nature, still present, maintains encouraging symptoms of survival. The precariousness of these anonymous statuettes, at the height of the sole of the passers, represents the nomadic remainders of an imperfect construction of our society. These small sculptures contemplate the demolition and reconstruction of everything around us. They catch the attention of the absurdity of our existence. Read More

L’Espagnol I. Cordal, marqué par la bétonisation de son pays natal et taraudé par certaines thématiques, a entrepris de sculpter des êtres humains dans du ciment. Cet ouvrage revient sur ses oeuvres antérieures, et sur ses installations à divers espaces urbains à Nantes qui mettent en scène des centaines de ces personnages représentant soldats, simples citoyens, employés, mariés…
