TEXT BY CARMEN ROTGER ORDOÑEZ
Alba Lorente Hernández's work is a passive cry of truth, which attests to a process of working with the material itself: in it there is not a gesture, but a trace. Her compositions testify to a radical nonconformity, in which the artist tries to deny what we know to be true not in the motives, but in the starting point, the form.
Observation, sensitivity towards the different media and their careful choice make the creation process intervened by the baggage of the avant-gardes of the last century (especially by the Manifesto of destructive art by Kenneth Kemble), but also by nature. of the object to transform. Through action on the different materials that he uses, Lorente breaks something that was being. Ultimately, it breaks the very nature of the verb to be, in an act as impulsive as it is patient in which observation and abduction coexist and alternate.
Delving into the idea of presence through absence, his choice of black as the dominant color is a faithful reflection of the security of that rejection of what is already known, and of a deep pictorial ambition.
"Although it is night, here the creatures are being called", and the call is in the lines, in the spots, in the cuts, the folds, the wrinkles, and the perforations. The work calls the viewer and encourages him to accept the contradictions, and to live.
It is as if to the question “what are you afraid of?”, Alba Lorente Hernández's work answered “yesterday”, and flees forward in search of an authentic, new and personal vision of Art.
