Space, universe, language or expansion are some of the concepts that not only give name to Ruth Morán's compositions, but also allow us to enter her work from a subjectivation of all of them. A subjectivation, yes. Why does Morán let each one of her meanings go through it: what can space, language or the universe be. This can be through that constant and meticulous exercise that characterizes her gesture. Morán writes in the space of the paper appealing to that other common place. At the same time, she is pierced by inscriptions that respond to a universal memory. On this occasion we are approaching two new challenges: the dialogue between works belonging to different series and, in a subtle and forceful way, the dialogue with materials and ceramics.
If up to now we had been able to contemplate her work and think about it on the basis of the autonomy of each one of them or the complicity with which they dialogued between themselves, now she allows that without losing an apex of that primeval power, they intermingle and give meaning to a new score. As can be seen in each of the gallery walls, the wall space is thought of as a stave and each of the compositions creates a specific rhythm in combination with the other. Always without losing her solitary strength, like the notes of the best of the melodies. Her works, individually or in that disposition that points to the score, become synthesis of a particular conception of the world in which we live. Reflective sparkles that condense the presence of human being in the universe.
As we said, her paintings ceramics are accompanied by ceramics for the first time. Material bodies that condense the force of fingerprint and touch. The power of the body in the space. There is no more sincere trace than her own imprint on the materials. This is how this suspension, to which her golden sparkles lead us (Expansion, Language and Universe or Vegetable Space), dialogues with the material pieces. Her sculptures refer to a contemporary primitivism: flowers, shells and organic forms unfold their volumes through their imprint. Of the weight that she exerts in creation.
The whole composition creates a wide score of silences, high notes, low notes, and crotchets. Each element invites to reflection, as each one reveals itself irreplaceable, from its overflowing presence.
