Rationale
"The imaginary of power is housed in high-security buildings equipped with uninterrupted electricity systems, communication networks, and refrigeration to house thousands of servers that store the accumulated narrative of human activities, whatever they may be. Data centers are IT cathedrals, housing an omnipresent power that allows for the control of individual and social behavior by possessing the vortex of information generated by the conscious and unconscious exchanges of millions of users in virtual spaces. The enormous stained-glass windows that filtered the light of divinity have been replaced by sinister lights that blink intermittently, emanating from supercomputers. The sublime of human connections is deposited in digital images and words that record a significant part of our exchanges of material, natural, and intellectual resources, and therefore, political ones. Twelve oil paintings and a subtle climatic alteration condense the virtual elements of this information frenzy, in an operation similar to economic exchanges. In recent decades, information technologies have been responsible for complicating the systematization of figures, analyzing communities on social networks, and developing connections and tools for financial markets. This data is confidentially filtered by specialized agencies that identify patterns and make predictions to offer sophisticated tools to investors. This information is disseminated in a cloud to return to a container in the form of rain and, later, as vapor of numbers and mathematical abstractions in the form of financial projections. These algorithms inhabit the abstraction of an ecosystem altered by the processes and developments of these technologies. The abundance of data modifies the nature of competition, as diverse assets, companies, and corporate giants compete for profitability, currency trading, and commerce, thus configuring a process analogous to species adaptation." -Cecilia Barreto

Artist

Cecilia Barreto

Cecilia Barreto develops a rigorous and deeply critical painting practice, in which she articulates visual abstraction, economic analysis, and territorial reflection to examine how global capitalism leaves material and symbolic traces in our society. Her work stands out for its ability to translate financial data —such as stock market graphs or market indicators— into plastic compositions that confront the viewer with the invisible languages of power. Throughout her evolution, she has expanded her focus from the direct representation of the economic to more contained painting, where capital appears as form, texture, or void. Her potency lies in the conceptual coherence with which she addresses complex themes —such as extractivism, abstract value, or the violence of the landscape—, always resolving them through a refined, material, and formally precise technical language. In a contemporary context saturated with information, Barreto offers a painting that not only represents but thinks, dismantling the visual codes of the system from within the medium itself.
