ORENDAIN's "Jirón de Memoria" explores the fragility of what is remembered through red and black geometries interrupted by golden fragments, a metaphor for a luminous but eroded memory. The warm undertone evokes wear and tear, while the tension between the constructive and the ruined reveals that history, though fragmented, retains its symbolic power.

Curatorial Description
In Jirón de Memoria , ORENDAIN explores the fragility of what is remembered and what persists. The composition, marked by solid geometries in reds and blacks, is interrupted by golden fragments that seem to detach themselves or resist the passage of time. The gold leaf, broken and incomplete, becomes a metaphor for memory: a territory that shines brightly, but at the same time fragments and erodes.
The warm background of ochre and yellow tones establishes an atmospheric field that evokes both the wear and tear of time and the permanence of the sacred. The work engages with the tradition of constructivist art and Latin American geometric abstraction, but incorporates a deeply personal gesture: the tension between the architectural and the ruined, between structure and crack.
Jirón de Memoria invites us to recognize that history—both personal and collective—is not preserved intact, but in pieces that, even when broken, maintain their symbolic power.
