Laura Lasheras (La Rioja, Spain, 1979), known as Lusesita, sets the Genesis story in a triptych of ceramics and textile, populated by a cast of mice. El jardín de las delicias features many of the artist’s trademarks: pastel shades, organic forms and winsome characters are countered with disquieting details such as elongated fingers, spikes and tongues. These contrasting elements reflect the artist’s interest in the duality of human nature, evoking in the viewer a contradictory blend of tenderness and revulsion. Unbleached cloth and glazing are used selectively, adding texture to the three structures inspired by Bosch’s fantasy architecture. The original’s moralistic focus, however, is challenged in Lusesita’s tale. Adam and Eve remain the protagonists but sin looks cute and even hell has a touch of pink.
