Cronologías de lo Invisible: Experiencias estéticas de mujeres artistas en Costa Rica (1900-1980) es una exhibición historiográfica que muestra los resultados de la investigación de las artistas costarricenses Susana Sánchez Carballo y Sussy Vargas Alvarado. Gira en torno a la obra de 63 mujeres artistas costarricenses que han sido omitidas de la historia del arte del país, constituyendo una labor de buscar archivos, registros, colecciones y representa un esfuerzo para (re)construir una narrativa nacional hasta el momento incompleta.
La identidad visual muestra gráfica y espacialmente el acto de revelar lo oculto, exponer a partir de rastros lo incompleto. Diseñé un logo tipográfico que reprodujera la acción de iluminar, revelando parcialmente las palabras y haciendo visible las historias detrás. Se resaltó con anaranjado una selección de paredes y paneles para guiar la mirada a ciertos espacios y recorridos.
Por último, diseñé un folleto sobre las artistas presentes en la exhibición.
Chronologies of the Invisible: Aesthetic experiences of woman artists in Costa Rica (1900-1980) is a historiographical exhibition that displays the research done by costa rican artists Susana Sánchez Carballo and Sussy Vargas Alvarado. It revolves around the work of 63 costa rican woman artists who have been excluded from the country’s art history, constituting a significant effort to look for archives, records and collections of these untold stories. It represents an attempt to (re)construct a national narrative up to now incomplete.
When designing the visual identity of the project, I aimed to graphically and spatially depict the act of revealing what’s hidden; exposing through traces what’s incomplete. A typographic logo was created to reproduced the action of illuminating, partially revealing the words and making visible the stories behind. A selection of walls and panels were painted bright orange to guide to eye to certain spaces and pathways.
Lastly, I designed a small booklet about the artist present in the exhibition.
