Barricades (Tourists of our own Existence)
Ester Partegàs layers enamel and acrylic across translucent Mylar and vinyl to construct a fragmented, visually restless composition that evokes the temporary structures and barriers that define contemporary urban and commercial spaces. The work's title gestures toward a kind of alienated self-observation, as though we have become spectators to our own lives, navigating environments built more for consumption than for habitation. Paper elements introduce a tactile impermanence, reinforcing the sense that these barricades—physical and psychological—are at once omnipresent and fundamentally unstable.
