Trilogía para tres timbres
Trilogy for Three Timbres an sculptural work Oswaldo Maciá has shown an interest in examining knowledge from different perspectives, while removing the emphasis on the sense of sight. Instead, he has favored a territory where this sense merges with others, expanding the possibilities for the generation of ideas.
In Classical Greece, a trilogy was a set of three interlinked tragedies by a single playwright. Meanwhile, timbre refers to the quality of a musical note, sound, or tone that refers to the source of emission of the noise, marking it out from other possibilities.
Trilogía para tres timbres (Trilogy for Three Timbres) comprises three elements that refer to three senses: a sculptural component, an auditory one, and an olfactory one, inviting the visitor to an immersive experience, a crossover of the senses, and an urgent reinterpretation of the recent history of migration and the dreadful events that accompany it.
