“Art Lovers” is a series by the artist Magola Moreno that simulates the stereotyped context of social journalism through couples whose identity is forged through crafted poses and their possessions, in this case, of a work of art. Her seaters come from her most immediate environment and studio place, the small town of Pueblo Bello, a municipality located in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta in Colombia surrounded by two indigenous communities, the Arahuacas and Nabusimakes. Despite being an isolated artist due to her geographical location, her “Art Lovers” series addresses a current and trending international theme where every day intimate spaces expose the aspirations of a racial and socially stratified country in an idealized situations that aim to balance the social forces in tension. Her work is based on the principles of the physician, philosopher, revolutionary militant and French-Martinican writer Frantz Fanon, and the ideas on racialization of Michael Foucault, both leaders on Afro identity arising from the emancipatory ideals in France in the 1960’s taking inspiration from the manifesto "La Negritude" by Aimee Cesar in 1935. In pictorial terms hers is a reflection from painting on painting itself revealing courage, strength and autonomy in her own terms.
