TASTE OF SPRING

José Luis Vicario is a sculptor, poet, and researcher at the University of Granada, Spain.

In the artist’s words: “Through our windows in Andalucia, we have watched the onset of spring, 2020.

Only recently have we been able to leave our home, and we have found in the nearby hills that nature has been working actively during many past weeks without us. I went walking out through the fields, trying to sense and to savour time lost. As if I were an appropriate vase for the flowers of the gutter.”
