NEW FOSSILS-2021

Cartography of the Stain: New Fossils emerged as part of the artistic collaboration between Paris Díaz and Gerardo Nolasco, representing the cities of Guadalajara (Mexico) and Karlsruhe (Germany).

This collaboration takes place within the framework of the City to City: Human Responsibility initiative promoted by the Media Arts cluster of the UNESCO Creative Cities Network.

Within one of the dynamics of the project presented for City to City, Paris Díaz, would take a photograph in Guadalajara for Gerardo Nolasco to intervene freely, the result was something that ironically between laughter they named, New Fossils.

The piece is encapsulated in epoxy resin (40x40x32), replicating the image of the bott- le embedded in a street in Guadalajara in 2020.

"A song of Coexistence" - 2020

The metropolitan area of the city of Guadalajara, we live around 5 million inhabitants, I thought of the endless stories that are born and die in the same place, somehow, I imagined these same turning, forming and building the city, as all people live together daily, they coexist, even without knowing each other, without crossing a word, they build and make this city work. Guadalajara, a city with a high tradition and culture, contrasting, iconic, with all the pros and cons that a metropolis ofthis size comes to have, as each aspect, individual, elements that make it up, both positively and negatively, are part of a tight machinery that does not collapse and is a functional piece, all this creates a beautiful and unique, song of coexistence.
