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.
