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.

SILVIA TURBINER
Buenos Aires, Argentina
When she first started pulling and
playing with bast fibers, it reminded her
of how she feels when swimming—the
same kind of movement and lightness.
Paper is a versatile material, full of
poetry, delicate yet strong, smooth
and structured, created in water and
shaped in water. Silvia enjoys seeing
the whole process through, from
the beginning to the very end. She
gathers the plants, dries them, soaks
and cooks the fibers until they stand
as sculptures or float from the ceiling.
She loves feeling the tactility of the
surface and watching how it becomes
a strong yet vulnerable skin that bends
and flows with her breath. Her works
are about identity and the quality of
existence. They are about memories
and heritage that appear through
different layers of fiber webs.
