The most recent acoustic and visual montage by Germán Herrera can be seen in the exhibition hall of the José María Cruz Novillo School of Art, as a result of the collaboration between Religious Music Week and Discoduro.QNK’s Digital Art Review at the Antonio Saura Foundation.
Series of images photographed and subsequently treated digitally by an introspection process, establishing links and connections which hatch the plot for a compositional and generally intuitive montage. Exhibiting an unsettling result, of free interpretation and with large doses of symbolism.
