UCOCultura and UCOPress have just published the catalog Los pasos del pecado by artist and judge Mercedes Daza.
The work documents the exhibition presented at the UCOCultura Center at the University of Córdoba, where the artist presents a series of paintings centered on the concept of “sin” from a contemporary perspective, stripped of its traditional moral connotations.
Through a visual language of her own, defined by its chromatic intensity, its compelling force, and a marked conceptual character, the series transforms the body—and, in particular, the female legs—into a central narrative element, capable of bursting onto the scene where guilt once reigned.
The catalog includes both the exhibited works and a selection of award-winning pieces, accompanied by narrative explanatory texts written by the artist herself, which offer a profound and articulate interpretation of the artistic proposal, helping to reinforce a discourse with a clear personal stamp.
In this sense, Los pasos del pecado offers an open interpretation in which the viewer is invited to question their own limits, desires, and ways of seeing.
Mercedes Daza García, a judge, doctor of law, visual artist, and writer, develops in this publication a project where conceptual precision and expressive freedom converge, and where image and word intertwine in a constant dialogue.
