Descripción de la Exposición

The art of animation allows us to immerse ourselves in endless experiences. In this exhibition, MOLAA presents Quique Rivera – an animation artist, sculptor, photographer, and film director – and his world of creations. This exhibition is significant because the artist, an alchemist in his laboratory, allows us to enter his creative process, the marvelous transformation of a truly innovative idea. It submerges us in his moments of inspiration and introduces us to his tender and extreme creatures, the contexts, and stories behind his video artwork. At the same time, it unveils the artistic secrets of the stop motion technique, movement by movement. Unique characters, sensitive and strange at the same time, live beings, and unrecognizable objects tell a story of dreams and fantasy where the human tale and autobiographical story take us into an imaginary journey to his endearing and native Puerto Rico. In addition to his profound knowledge of the technique and its almost infinite possibilities, Rivera is primarily a storyteller, a narrator of parallel realities. He moves through sometimes uncertain dimensions and other recognizable ones where current topics, such as nature and social change, can engage us and be addressed. Floating Timeline is an invitation to visit the worlds of constant creation in a multimedia environment with image, sound, and illusions filled with subtleties. A unique setting that is also capable of expressing a message that is recognizable, approachable, and universal. Gabriela Urtiaga, MOLAA Chief Curator
