1975 | He was born in Montevideo where he lives and works.
¿I¿m interested in entering a World and circulate in it. Entering it without knowing where I¿m going. I want to tell the same thing in different ways. I want to remake what I see and feel in different languages¿
Vladimir Muhvich works on analogies with analytical sense. He is interested in exploring the human body and, what¿s more, he proposes us an approach to the human condition. He circulates in intricacies and corners, among particles. ¿I¿m interested in entering a world without knowing where I¿m going to, it¿s like going beyond the notion of inside and outside.¿ He proposes us changes in dimensions, perspectives, forms and textures of materials in an attempt to see things from different viewpoints. ¿Every time we change the viewpoint, there are ramifications. What started in a concept then becomes circular; it has endless ramifications. This obsession could be related to the variety of artistic techniques I use.¿ His work shouldn¿t be approached in isolation; we conceive an imaginary line, a guide that helps us go round the set and join all his productions. From the imagination, the sum of the parts also makes up the whole. It helps us to understand there are no isolated particles, neither in physics nor in society.
