This exhibition proves the continuity, and evolution, of his creative thought, which for him is nothing more than the universal relationship of art to everything that pertains to human existence. This is a process in which each series opens only a window of access to a universe immensely greater than what can be seen at first glimpse. As in any valid work such as this, what you see at a glance is only the tip of the iceberg. June 16, 2018 takes the novel Ulysses by James Joyce ad an initial reference. In formal terms, Jorge tries, “re-creating” with exactitude the sky every two hours over the course of one day (June 16, 2018), the narrative of the ephemeral, of the perishable. As in Joyce’s Ulysses, which also takes place in a single day (June 16, 1904) but in the decadent Dublin, Jorge reminds us, through a group of beautiful...sky-scapes, that there is nothing more fleeting than existence itself. What we are seeing already was, and this is a fact that, while beautiful, contains a drama with no solution. As in Ulysses, this show focuses on the simplicity of everyday life, heroism, and beauty, and surviving our insignificance. The essence of the discourse lies in showing the face of the common man, his strength to live, transforming the habitual into the heroic. What else is life but an epic in reverse? Because the road can be wonderful, but the end is almost never the victory.
