We live in an era of internet addiction. Social media made us isolated and lonely like never before. In the last fifteen years, regardless of geographic location rates of loneliness have gone incredibly high around the world. This increase has been associated with several growing concerns related to mental and physical well-being. Technology has deeply transformed humankind’s culture and values. Social media is changing children’s emotional intelligence such as loosing the feeling of empathy.
Among teenagers cyberbullying statistics worldwide reveal alarming facts about virtual harassment. Experience of bullying and cyberbullying are also associated with the development of low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, family problems, academic difficulties, delinquency, school violence, and suicidal thoughts/attempts.
What the future holds to this generation? When will they realise the harmful effect of loosing real human connection? When will all the social media modules accept their negative effect on the world and change their user surface for good? When will we live in a world where health is more important than business?
Vivimos en una era de adicción a internet. Es paradójico que las redes sociales nos hicieron aislados y solitarios como nunca antes. Durante los últimos quince años, la soledad han ido increíblemente alto en todos partes del mundo independientemente de localización geográfica. Este aumento se ha asociado con varias preocupaciones crecientes relacionadas con el bienestar mental y físico. La tecnología ha transformado profundamente la cultura y los valores de la humanidad. Las redes sociales afectan a la inteligencia emocional de los niños como perder el sentimiento de empatía.
Entre los adolescentes las estadísticas de ciberacoso en todo el mundo revelan hechos alarmantes sobre el acoso virtual. La experiencia de acoso y ciberacoso también se asocia con el desarrollo de baja autoestima, depresión, ansiedad, problemas familiares, dificultades académicas, delincuencia, violencia escolar y pensamientos/intentos suicidas.
¿Qué le depara el futuro a esta generación? ¿Cuándo se darán cuenta del efecto nocivo de perder la conexión humana real? ¿Cuándo aceptarán todos los módulos de redes sociales su efecto negativo en el mundo y cambiarán su superficie de usuario para mejor? ¿Cuándo viviremos en un mundo donde nuestro salud es más importante que los negocios?
Thanks very much to everyone for coming!
Exhibition is open until 4th of Oct, 2019 (except August) at N2 Galería.

Both experts in neuroscience, as psychologists and philosophers, agree in emphasizing the importance of emotional relationships to achieve happiness (or what we might call a balanced life). Not only do we need to communicate with others, it is also fundamental for the healthy formation of the individual and his cognitive development to give and receive affection. We can verify it from personal experiences, paying special attention to our emotions, listening to us and identifying what makes us feel good, in front of what makes us harm. Is at this level of knowledge, derived from personal experience and self-observation (which can also be a basis of thought, as Montaigne has already shown) where the Hungarian artist Brigitta Both develops her work. From her personal experience derived from emigration, she felt firsthand how the connection with other human beings was what best helped her to overcome the difficult moments of isolation and exclusion as a foreigner in Oxford, where she arrived in 2007 from Budapest.
After receiving the XV BBVA Painting Prize “Ricard Camí” and showing in the Terrassa Cultural Center her exhibition “Monochrome”, arrives at N2 with Connection / Connection. Continuing with the exclusive use of white and black in her canvases, Brigitta Both works on human relationships, in particular the connections we experience with other people and how we can find in the others consolation, company and well-being.

Inspired by black and white photography, Brigitta Both paints in a minimalist, monochrome style. She has discovered monochrome painting as a simple yet powerful way to express the beauty of infinite shades of human emotions. Noticeably, there is a recurrent tension between her blacks and her whites. Her whites are usually very bright and her blacks are very dark -white representing purity and harmony contrasting with black representing drama, disturbance and disharmony.
Moving abroad and starting a new life in a different culture can lead one to question one’s identity. Having gone through that herself, Brigitta picks subjects such as dealing with loneliness and rejection as experienced from a woman’s perspective. She repeatedly suggests a possible solution:finding comfort and security in another person.

Tanto expertos en neurociencia, como psicólogos y filósofos, coinciden en destacar la importancia de las relaciones afectivas para alcanzar la felicidad (o lo que podríamos llamar una vida equilibrada). No solo necesitamos comunicarnos con los demás, también es fundamental para la sana formación del individuo y su desarrollo cognitivo dar y recibir afecto. Podemos comprobarlo a partir de experiencias personales, prestando especial atención a nuestras emociones, escuchándonos e identificando aquello que nos hace bien, frente a aquello que nos hace mal. En este plano del conocimiento derivado de la experiencia personal y de la auto-observación (base también del pensamiento, como ya lo demostrara Montaigne), se mueve la artista plástica de origen húngaro, Brigitta Both. A partir de su experiencia personal derivada de la emigración, experimentó en carne propia como la conexión con otros seres humanos era lo que mejor la ayudaba a superar los difíciles momentos de aislamiento y de exclusión como extranjera en Oxford, adonde llegó en 2008 desde Budapest.
Tras recibir el XV Premio BBVA de Pintura Ricard Camí y presentar en el Centre Cultural Terrassa, a finales de 2018, su exposición “Monocrom”, la artista húngara Brigitta Both llega a N2 con Connection / Conexión. Continuando con el uso exclusivo del blanco y el negro en sus lienzos, trabaja las relaciones humanas, en particular las conexiones que vivimos con otras personas, cómo podemos encontrar en el otro consuelo, compañía y bienestar.
Inspirada en la fotografía en blanco y negro, Brigitta Both pinta en un estilo minimalista, entre la figuración y la abstracción. Ha descubierto la pintura monocromática como una forma simple pero poderosa de expresar la belleza de los infinitos matices de las emociones humanas. Se puede percibir una tensión recurrente entre los negros y los blancos. Sus blancos suelen ser muy brillantes y sus negros, muy oscuros: el blanco representa la pureza y la armonía en contraste con el negro, que representa el drama, la perturbación y la falta de armonía.
Tener que irse a vivir al extranjero y comenzar una nueva vida en una cultura diferente puede poner en cuestión la identidad propia. Brigitta Both, después de haberlo experimentado en primera persona, trata temas como la soledad y el rechazo vividos desde la perspectiva de una mujer. Su solución: encontrar confort y seguridad en el otro.

La piel está ahí para cubrirnos y protegernos, como pensamos que debería hacer el amor. Puede ser barrera, pero no es escudo. Porque tenemos piel sentimos el contacto y la presión, la temperatura y el dolor. Sabemos de la caricia, el golpe, el pinchazo y la quemadura. De la suavidad y la aspereza. La piel comunica. Aunque el significado varia según el contexto. Se eriza tanto de deseo como de miedo.
Es la parte más externa de nuestro cuerpo, lo visible. La última frontera entre el otro y yo, entre el mundo y yo. Fuera de mi piel, soy extranjera.
La piel es nuestra superficie, el lienzo sobre el que se graban las marcas del tiempo. El libro abierto donde está escrita nuestra vida.
Decimos piel y se activan en nuestro cerebro imágenes tan distintas como las obras que se recogen en esta exposición comisariada por Andrea Krafft. Cada artista ha aportado su versión, de manera que en Skin nos movemos entre la ternura y la violencia, la compañía y el aislamiento, el abrazo amoroso y la lucha. Diecisiete miradas que se encuentran, se complementan, unas veces, se enfrentan, otras.

Last chance this week to visit my exhibition ‘Monochrome’ at Centre Cultural Terrassa.
The show is on until the 7th of October.
“We urge the visitor to discover this exhibition and to interact with the works there,
for these are profound pieces with a powerful psychological component that fuse the
figural and abstract worlds, most of them in black (dark drama) and white (purity).”
Antigues Caixes Catalanes Foundation | Antiga Caixa Terrassa Foundation | BBVA CX
The Exhibition is running until 7th of October 2018 at Centre Cultural Terrassa, Spain
