FRAGMENTUM

Houses, walls, plants: these are the cells that build the narrative of life, urban space, and communities. Cristina (re)creates fragments of personal history from currently uninhabited urban spaces and recovers the absence of material culture from different historical communities. She investigates the present-past connection through a complex artistic approach that accesses the memory of five uninhabited spaces, with simultaneous references to both the outside and the inside: walls, houses, gardens, trees, and flowers. The diversity of the narrative structure is supported by the artist’s attempt to create a bridge between past and present, old and new, and especially between the urban house and its garden, all connected through a desire to restore the sense and feeling of a community.
