“After months of confinement, the wall, the one that isolated him from reality, acquired the exact color that he so
had wished for: iridescent white.”

Daniel Salamanca
CB2 Syndrome defines one of Daniel Salamanca's most recent projects, bringing together a series of exercises involving paintings in various shades of white, canvas-covered stretchers simulating objects within a room, and a literary text describing the clinical picture of a fictional character. Using a series of framed stories, the artist creates a stage set based on literary references that interact with the space through the pictorial exploration of color and the construction of diverse planes of perception. For this project, Salamanca presents an experiment with six texts in which the artist develops different narrative axes that converge in the solitary and colorless world of his protagonist.
