NATURAL IMPRESSIONS
The 64 artists from 22 different nationalities selected for this exhibition not only enrich our consensus on artistic expression and cultural perspective but also expand our understanding of nature and its representation in the arts. This reflective approach challenges established conventions, allowing for diverse interpretations and representations of the world. It awakens human consciousness to the source of inspiration that the capacity to imagine represents, encouraging the audience to reflect on their relationship with the world and recognize the importance of art as a profound connection with the intrinsic essence of humanity.

CAROLINA CARUBIN
Buenos Aires, Argentina
What bonds exist between the plant
and animal worlds? Does life emerge
from these crossings? Can these
worlds coexist and survive? Carolina
Carubin’s soft sculptures are textile
bodies that submit to the forces of
nature. Gravity, weight, and balance
actively act in the pieces, generating
deformations and revealing the vital
dimension of the structures. The
fiber weaves suffer from the natural
consequences of being the network
that conforms everything that moves
and lives: nerves of plants, feathers of
a bird, or even our neuronal networks.
In their existence, traces of the animal
universe are imprinted, which present
themselves in imprecise textures of
rare beauty and volumes that suggest
figures in germination. Just like the
maternal body, the fibers swell, wear
out, and transform until they evolve
into abstractions. Between tension
and harmony, an affective community
emerges from these relationships,
containing within itself the vegetable
and the animal and, perhaps, the
possible mutations that arise from this
interaction.
