Pauline Fondevila defines the proposal for the wall at Moss as a time to fly. A series of sentences with a poetical touch, words to fly, to sing, to take us to a country of imagination. Sentences that are part of drawings, compositions made with the gesture of the artist having in mind the joy for escapism.
Three spaces -three walls- present us the option to define a temporality and a sequence. Pauline Fondevila thinks about the wall as a possible song, as a multilayered musical situation that can be full of sounds and details following a melody. The drawings can be seen from a distance and will include some details that can be discovered with a closer look. Three sentences and a melody, a composition to be seen and to feel.
