Todo comienza cuando nacemos. Apenas llegamos al mundo nos visten con tonos pastel. Después vienen las esponjas de baño, los rellenos de gomaespuma, las velas de cumpleaños y el confetti. Todos directos de fábrica con estos colores. También de color pastel son las libretas y gomas de borrar, los algodones desmaquillantes, las entradas de cine y las mantelerías de los restaurantes. Estos colores inofensivos y casi mudos, reclaman con fuerza la atención de Julia Vergara (Madrid 1976), que decide adoptarlos como los primarios de su paleta personal al ser consciente de que estos colores se siguen repitiendo en los impresos oficiales, las hojas copiativas, los sobres de salario, los tickets que indican el turno...
Para la exposición, estos Colores Primarios se combinan con la abstracción de elementos cotidianos empleando juegos geométricos. Un sobre de salario o una colección de tickets de turno, entre otros, han servido como punto de partida para crear una serie de estudios de repeticiones realizadas con sellos tallados a mano, y estampados también manualmente sobre papeles antiguos. Cada composición de las mostradas en la exposición es única. Además se presenta una edición limitada de doce bolsas de tela realizada especialmente para esta ocasión.
Everything gets started when we are born. We are dressed in pastel colours as soon as we are brought into life. Bath sponges, foam stuffing, birthday candles, confetti come right after. All of them available in these colours straight from the factory. Also old notebooks, rubber erasers, cotton make up remover pads, cinema tickets and restaurant table linens... These subtle and inoffensive colours, catch the eye of Julia Vergara (Madrid 1976) who decides to make them primary colours in her personal palette, while they still keep in use in official forms, payslip envelopes, tickets...
For this exhibition, these Primary Colours are combined in geometric compositions with elements and shapes taken from everyday objects. Payslip envelopes or the tickets used in shops for managing the waiting queues, among other objects, are the starting point for this series of studies on repetitions that Julia has printed on vintage paper sheets with handmade stamps. Every exhibited piece is unique. Also a limited and numbered edition of 12 tote bags is available for sale especially for this ocation.
