Vertigo No.1 (Prints)
Vertigo No.1 (Prints)
"Vértigo No. 1" portrays a fragment of my poem "La Parábola". In the poem, a man wanders through life, submerged in deep anguish, searching for relief from a consuming pain. Along his path, he encounters Adam and Eve. Silently, they observe him, and in response, they perform an enigmatic dance. In that ritual movement, they assemble a machine and connect him to it. He inhales the fragrance of the fruit they offer, and in that instant, his pain and sorrow vanish.
But the peace is fleeting. When he awakens from the soothing effect of the fruit, he realizes with horror that he has spent ten thousand years walking in circles on a structure, trapped in a prison without walls, where a raging ocean is his only barrier. This dark, turbulent ocean surrounds him endlessly, reflecting his despair and his eternal struggle to escape the illusion of calm in which he has been ensnared.
"Vértigo No. 1" captures that moment of realization, the instant the man becomes aware of his confinement and the magnitude of his torment. The intense blue tones and deep shadows evoke the ocean’s power, while the spiraling waves pull him toward a dark center, like a vortex consuming his will and condemning him to repeat his steps in an endless cycle. The solitary structure at the center represents both the illusion of stability and the trap that keeps him captive, locked within his own internal vertigo.
This piece invites the viewer to confront their own fears and the possibility of being trapped in their own cycles, challenging them to consider the temptation of temporary solutions and the challenge of finding a true awakening.
