Abstract

"Estela is an indefatigable traveler, with a real base camp in Amsterdam, and an imaginary one, Lladó. This may help you understand those rock cuts that modify the material's own condition, which is neither a stone nor a jewel, but a place itself. The objects proposed are stone or metal towns, primitives, distant, that hide fragile things in a constant process, fugitives. Her own way to make it happen is to say the least, peculiar, given the treatment she makes to the material, its proportions and the impossible reproducibility of each object. From that ensemble, I am fascinated by the sculptures, made with pink or smoked translucent stone. And from the metallics’, the patinas, almost pictorial, that relegates the material to stateless condition. She abuses the noble condition from materials such as gold and silver, and brings them closer to scrap iron or rusty wire"--http://www.klimt02.net.
