	Inhabiting Ourselves by Juilo Sanchez The 14th Dalai Lama once pointed out that while the West was embarking on the conquest of outer space, the East was trying to explore inner space. In Nora Bariggi’s latest paintings, one gets the feeling that they correspond to the second option. In her paintings, there is a constant sputtering between serenity and a veritable hullabaloo, and yet, it is not hard to trace the tracks of that exploration of interior roads. The titles – as well as the spirit – of each of the works are clear guidelines to the different moments of that journey. The initiation of this trek implies abandoning the starting point, and renunciation is precisely one of the themes of her painting, as in Deconstruction or Release of Freedom. Part of the road inward implies a farewell to all of that which we believe to be good and useful, when it has ceased to be so.
