Carmen Baena
Granada, 1967
In my sculptural work, I try to transfer the idea of nature by elevating it to the sacred. The white of the marble and the gold of the gold are two of the key elements to convey the idea of the extremely pure and beautiful. Trees are treated as beings worthy of protection, to be worshipped; as did some primitive peoples, they become "totems" charged with energy and power. The house appears in the landscape as the being. It is in my work the meaning of the relationship between man and nature.
