Silkscreen on silk // Cristina Iglesias' Habitación XII (2002) is a limited edition silkscreen print that continues her exploration of spatial perception and architectural forms. The image, rendered in monochromatic tones, presents a complex interior environment constructed from layered cardboard-like structures. Through the series of rectangular frames, the viewer is drawn into a receding space that culminates in an image of an outdoor forest scene in the distance, contrasting the man-made interior with the natural world. The composition plays with perspective, depth, and the relationship between interior and exterior spaces. The visual tension between the rough, industrial texture of the cardboard and the soft, inviting forest scene creates a sense of intrigue and curiosity. Iglesias' use of silk as a medium adds an element of delicacy to the otherwise stark and architectural forms, inviting viewers to reflect on how we perceive and move through spaces.

What is Surrealism?
Surrealism began in the 1920s as an art and literary movement with the goal of revealing the unconscious mind and unleashing the imagination by exploring unusual and dream-like imagery. Influenced by Sigmund Freud’s theories of psychoanalysis, Surrealist artists and writers sought to bring the unconscious into rational life, blurring the lines between reality and dreams. The movement aimed to challenge conventional perceptions and express the irrational aspects of the human experience.
