About the Item
This mixed media wall piece merges textile sculpture, embroidery, and painting in a poetic composition that plays with scale, texture, and symbolic transformation. Crecer y menguar forms part of María Magán’s dreamlike series Ni antes ni después, where visual elements from the domestic realm are distorted into surreal objects of perception. A soft, elongated textile shape—resembling a tail or tendril—emerges from floral cotton fabric, stitched irregularly with yellow thread. Suspended in dialogue is a round embroidery hoop containing a yellow smoke-like form, painted with translucent layers, suggestive of transformation, evaporation, or metamorphosis.
The composition references the bodily shifts experienced by Alice in Alice in Wonderland—a visual metaphor for hormonal, psychological, or perceptual fluctuations. Magán draws on Lewis Carroll’s narrative logic, where growing and shrinking are not merely changes in scale, but symptoms of deeper instability and wonder. Through delicate textile manipulations and intuitive visual associations, the piece explores how the domestic space can become a stage for the fantastical and the grotesque.
Executed in cotton fabric, painted wood, and embroidery, the piece is lightweight and ready to hang. Its muted palette, interrupted by the striking yellow embroidery and transparent golden painting, enhances its quiet dissonance and conceptual layering. Crecer y menguar stands as a sensual and psychological tableau, blurring the line between object and organism, surface and symbol.
