Lorena Ruiz Pellicero (1991)
[EN]
My name is Lorena Ruiz Pellicero, and I have a fear of going blind. This fear drives me to observe everything closely and to engage with the world through visual experience. Using irony, absurdity, and poetic expression, I aim to blur the boundaries between reality and fiction, as well as between the physical and the virtual. My work explores how images influence our perception and shape the way we look at the world around us.
[ES]
Me llamo Lorena Ruiz Pellicero, y tengo miedo de quedarme ciega. Esta preocupación me impulsa a observarlo todo con atención y a relacionarme con el mundo a través de la experiencia visual. Mediante el vídeo, la fotografía y la instalación, exploro cómo las imágenes influyen en nuestra percepción y modelan la forma en que miramos el mundo que nos rodea, revelando las tensiones entre el cuerpo, la tecnología y el entorno.
