Escoto + Carrara

The inversion of color in the work of Escoto + Carrara transports us to alternative perceptual realms, with colors transmuted and enhanced by entering other worlds or new ways of seeing our world. Is that not what every work of art should aspire to? Without the need to resort to substances that alter our nervous system, the images before us in this exhibition lead us to certain moments of calm that we sometimes find ourselves in: hypnagogic states, daydreams, or situations of isolation and rest, moments when sleep and wakefulness mix, introducing sounds or images from our surroundings into the scenes our mind creates while we sleep. We lose the notion of time and space, we don't know who is really around us or from where they are speaking to us, and in that sensation we sometimes find the peace that we don't have when our consciousness governs our actions and thoughts.
