A solid and immaculate cudgel lies on its velvety and glorious bed. On its narrow framework stands a dome of full air that caresses its skin with its slow step. In such calm lap is caught the evidence of a cruel gag. It is Mari Claudia García’s hand and her always fertile genius the responsible for such placement; she is bold and stark. “A clear voice, cannot” but a presence is inviolable. So she tenses the strings of society’s moral building.
Don’t you doubt you will find anger in such procedures; her gesture seeks for a more effective way of yelling about outrages and denouncing the fickle nature of history’s political discourse. However, you will find her distorted in a strategic calm, quiet, waiting. Mari Claudia García bets on the truth and its limpid evidences, and on honesty as a primary value. So she distrusts of the harangue, the libelous speech and its entire means, and uses a direct, tight poetry, sponsored by the immanence of the material world and the objectivity of a regal analysis.
Each object she presents is a symbolic manipulation. Each one of them evidences, due to the blessing of poetry turns, the paranoid nature of human existence, the unseemly rot of reason as a backbone principle of society, and the loss of justice. In a few words, and avoiding entropic arguments, this young artist bravely lashes out, with every crushing, every gesture of indifference, every sign of incontinence and she tells her uncertain story. It is, in short, a rebellious gesture, legitimized by the nobility of its transgressor character.
Let us make clear that her attitude is not putting art at the service of the most immediate contingencies of social life: those utopias will no longer offer their shadow here. Her poetry goes about the paradoxical nature of everyday existence, its contradictions and effluents; how, invariably, they hide after them the bias of a lie, ruse of the absolute power that controls everything following its will, that does not include justice and freedom, but its own. Mari Claudia García seeks vindication so a clear voice always can.
