PILAR ELGUETA AT THE DELFINA FOUNDATION’S RESIDENCY PROGRAM
Pilar Elgueta (Chile) is the selected artist for the Delfina Foundation’s Residency Program during Summer 2024. The artist-explorer activates ideas and images around the relation between the human being and landscape.

Using the limits of representation as a resource, failure is an aesthetic phenomenon, and the journey of exploration a creative practice, visual identity and first principle of her artistic work. Her multimedia research seeks to communicate the ways in which the experience of the world overflows us and collapses our systems, being only capable of capturing a small fragment, trusting in its power of translation and autonomy, and, at the same time, tempting our wills and their futility. A string of attempts, symbols, rhetorical figures and tautologies. The efforts and scaffolding – human and structural – involved in the action of transferring, deploying, arranging, sustaining, installing an image or language in a place.
During her residency at Delfina Foundation, Pilar plans to explore the following questions through philosophical, political, and speculative perspectives: What is it to be human today? How do we expand the limits of our own definition in a world and reality in accelerated transformation? She will do this through the creation of a project titled “The preservable of the unpreservable society”, founded on the logic of epic and poetic – but at the same time futile, somehow absurd – over-effort to make permanent that which is already being lost or is inherently impermanent.

The birth of a new collective is always good news, and it is so for several reasons. Firstly, because of the existence of collective dynamics that bring together different points of view and, second, because, in a didactic way, it contributes to illustrate and understand the current cartographies of art. For the Revolú collective, formed by Andrés Meléndez (San Juan, Puerto Rico, 1996), Miguel Ángel Feba (San Juan, Puerto Rico, 1994) and Marcos Daniel Vicéns (Bayamón, Puerto Rico, 1996), their first exhibition experience is the result of an artistic residency in which, almost blindly, they have been able to build those specific ties to start from the individual and reach the group identity.
