KHLORIS, HESPERIDES, HESPER

FRANCISCO LARIOS

23 JUL 2024 - 23 SEP 2024

The Art Design Project Gallery is pleased to announce our new virtual exhibition “Khloris, Hesperides, Hesper”, which includes a curated selection of unique artworks by the exceptional painter Francisco Larios, represented by our gallery. Khloris, aims to captivate the viewer and highlight the true Passion of this artist.

The title of these series “Khloris, Hesperides, Hesper” derives from one of the many conversations in which Jorge Luis Borges, a lover of walks and strolls through streets, parks, and gardens, in those conversations he intended to stop, listen carefully, and be able to distinguish between noise and chaos. of the city, the voices and songs of the birds, and so, following the voices of the birds, he reached the parks and gardens as if the breadcrumbs were left to him by the birds themselves and they assured him that this was the case. In these parks and gardens, it was possible to find all the buried voices and songs, whether seeds or diamonds. 


With this series, the artist imagines Borges trying to place his own gaze on the blurry image that was represented before him, the distant lights of the city, its advertisements and reflections, the silhouettes and its expressive silences, trying to exchange sounds for shapes, bird songs like lights.
To the question of Korean philosopher Byung-Chul Han: Is it possible in this era of digitalization to look at nature again, to fill it with romanticism? I resort to this image by Borges, insisting on looking, observing, and seeing. The Khloris series is a metaphor for the beginning, of the first look at Eden, it is an attempt to meet again in that expressive silence of light where the first time we exchange forms From the wish.
