Beatriz Santiago Munoz: A Universe of Fragile Mirrors



The exhibition “A Universe of Fragile Mirrors” of Beatriz Santiago Munoz was an interesting experience. Her work definitively shows the interest of an artist that brings to the viewer a unique and intimate space. It is a space where each piece, along with its characters, plays an important role and invites us to explore their environment. As the title of the exhibition says, I experienced the show as the reflection of different worlds that, at the same time, cohabits in one. Every piece can be viewed as fragments of the same mirror.



I loved the use of sensorial environments, especially with the vinyl records to depict emotional stages through sound. The small sculptures made with pieces of mirrors enhanced the space with the beautiful metaphorical concept of “fragile mirrors”. These sculptures would reflect the image of some videos, as well as their shadows on the intervened space. The characters in the videos seem to share and make the viewer part of their experiences.
