one-off mapping of "chaos vs tranquillity" by award-winning Venezuelan multi-media artist Cipriano Martinez.

Durham, an impossible word to pronounce

Nature's poweful scenery
Hidden industrial landscape reclaimed by nature
Weaving streams
Sounds of water
Underwear everywhere
Weir
A weird pink man sweating blood
Stagnant water
A pink house with blue doors
A Viaduct reflecting the difference in heights in the landscape
Stratos
Stories
Stairs

Cipriano Martinez …chaos, landscape, Mapping the Necklace


Mapping the Necklace was joined last week by Venezuelan multimedia artist Cipriano Martinez, who explored both the urban and pastoral qualities of the Necklace Park concept itself to see where it overlapped with his own work.. Cipriano, who lives and works in the UK, is an innovative and iconoclastic landscape artist who explores chaos and resolution in equal parts.

“Weavings, patterns of nerves, mental projections prefiguring misleading ideas of possible maps – these are some of the resources Cipriano Martinez uses to draw a landscape. Nobody can encounter his work with an innocent gaze. All have a favorable prejudice that art always means something, because the lack of a name confounds, torments, and unhinges pure reason. “ Andres Isaac Santana. Artnexus. No 60. Volume 5. Year 2006.

We await Cipriano’s own notes on his visit…
