- Summary
- Frequencies is a long-term project conceived in collaboration with writer Clara Dublanc and the artist's parents, Belisario Caicedo and Maria Virgelina Murillo. In 2013, Murillo began sending squares of raw canvas to selected schools in over twenty countries around the world, with the sole requirement that they be affixed to desks and illustrated by students. The canvases would stay there for a year and then be re-collected by the artist. Within weeks of their arrival, children from places as disparate as China and Slovenia began to draw, paint, write, and communicate, creating documents of their social and educational experiences. Frequencies catalogues the first year of Murillo's exploration, with intimate photographs of the participants and the project's myriad steps--the arrival of canvases to different schools, the process of wrapping desks, the students at work, and the final products.
