| Sumario: | [EN] This article analyzes the artistic research developed in the project Some efforts to understand the concept of philopatry (or that quality according to which some animals continually return to their place of origin). This research is carried out through a transdisciplinary production methodology that merges the praxis of the artistic project and field ornithology. Taking into account that transdicisplinarity offers the maximum gradient in crossover methodologies, the results of the research are extremely contaminated by both disciplines, generating highly miscible statements that generate a singular art-science dialectic with its consequent co-optation appointments. The project, exhibited in a Madrid Art Gallery in 2022, belongs to a group of works that, in a systematic way, attends to conceptual and procedural constants such as the quotation to the representational models of the science that studies birds, the return to the codes and languages of a past ornithology, the approach to the statements of conceptual art of the late 60's and early 70's, the zone of confluence between ornithology and orthodox conceptual art through the use of the signs of the editorial product or the staging of the archival model. In the specific case of the project we are analyzing, some supposed scientific studies on two bird species the White Stork (Ciconia ciconia) and the Common Crane (Grus grus) are presented, allegorizing their philopatric behavior in nesting and migration in order to express, in a controlled transposition, subjective aspects of the author in his continuous return to several themes and work constants. In this way it could be affirmed that, by trying to understand the ethology of birds, he glimpses an understanding of his own. |
