Lives & Works: Guadalajara, Mexico
Bio/Statement:
Javier M. Rodríguez’s practice incorporates sculpture, photography, video, mixed media and works on paper. Considering order as an illusion and the measurable as a fiction has led Rodríguez to question the way the world is understood based on the construction of limits. Within this framework, Rodríguez has developed a body of work that he qualifies as expanded cinema and that operate as a series of studies to rethink the order of time. By means of translation, the building blocks of film narrative are transferred to painting, sculpture or video installation in to the exhibition space waiting to be activated by the spectator’s body and movement. Javier M. Rodríguez is represented by Gallery Nosco.
