Art. Translated by Zubiaur Eider, Rodriguez Elena, and Passingham David Edgar. "Itziar Barrio's vision is an idiosyncratic and fascinating new visual language utilizing an array of diverse artistic media that serve to reconfigure old and new ideas, semiotics and signifiers, and objects and symbols. In her videos and performances, pinpointed by sensationalist climaxes and bombardments of multilayered information, a non-linear narrative is created through deconstructed elements that are mainly absorbed from the language of pop culture, cinema and mass media. One quick look is not sufficient. We are compelled to go back for more. What remains in our consciousness are the residue and fragments of a new visual code that impress upon our memory and leave us with an unsated, indefinable craving"--Micaela Giovannotti, Art Critic and Curator.
