Pending Memories
Memorias Pendientes
Turner

“Together with Adrián Fernández we move through statues that are actually models of future sculptures. Props for ephemeral scenographies. Puzzles. Tool. Laboratory tests with the impossible mission of finding a formula that will stop time.”
– Iván de la Nuez

“Significantly, in Fernández MEMORIAS PENDIENTES views, the structures are never shown as we imagine the were meant to be seen by the public. Instead, we view them from behind, like inhabitants of a Potemkin village, and see only the elaborate skeletal structure, now rusting and rotting, that once held up the bold image that we are left to guess at.”
