Apropiación y contemporaneización de Las hilanderas o la fábula de Aracne desde la tradición del pueblo Saraguro, lo barroco y la estética contemporánea

Abstract

To think of the Baroque is to go back in time and place oneself in the majesty of its art. Today, with the new aesthetic practices and its relation with the new artistic concepts, it is used in contemporary art, to create a new perspective of the current art, therefore, with the present work we intend a suggestive approach to the work and the public. By means of the investigation creation, the tradition of spinning of the Saraguro culture is presented, through digital painting and collage, with elements that connote and evidence the survival of the cultural identity. That is why it is proposed to capture these characters from an artistic point of view, fleeing from merely artisanal concepts.
