Edgar Cobian - Peor aún V (watercolor and indian ink on cotton paper, 16.5" x 11.7", 2018)
My work is developed in different media such as drawing, sculpture, video and music. It reflects on the notions of Utopia and Ideal as articulation and dismantling devices of dominant political, social and cultural structures. Between a certain cynicism and a dense sense of humor, work explores the symbolic possibilities of the image and its dislocation by overlapping referents drawn from fields such as politics, art, popular culture or personal history. From metaphors and sentences, and images that oscillate between irony and absurdity, uncertainty arises as a place of philosophical resistance to the ideological problems of humanity.
