Laura del Muro
Laura Muñoz Muro (1989) explores several fields combining poetry and photography in a slightly surrealist manner. With her fascination for the metaphysical world, she investigates the human sense through a cinematographic prism.
Since I was a kid, I was meeting a paper and a pen as big companions. Always I have felt attracted by poetry and literature. Nevertheless, my passion for beauty and photography, brought me to work in makeup being employed at all kind of productions. In 2015 I record "Letter to the Subconscious ", a piece that explores the internal conflicts that we suffer under anxiety and depression according Sigmund Freud psychoanalytic theory of personality . From this moment I have been creating as vital need.
I consider videoart as a powerful weapon to promote the change. For this reason, all my projects take as a root subjects related to the human psyche and its interaction with the world. Another aspect that stands out in my pieces is its surrealistic character.
For it, I use the symbolic analogy. A method used by the surrealistic painters during the early 20th century. This generates ideas, to obtain, by means of its essential key, an association of concepts seemingly distant. I like to work with abstract terms that represent a tangible reality. This represents a metaphor on its own. If we think about poetry, the use of metaphors with an aesthetic purpose, I try to apply this concept to images.
