Curatorial text
The other, people, situations, contexts, experiences, stories, define us constantly, touching our permeable reality, like the incessant flow of a river.
From the encounter, or disagreement, emanates the human form of life.
What brings us closer to the other, to the other shore?
I doubt it is arbitrariness or chance.
Could it be the synchronous search?
Different materialities that yearn to meet, manifest themselves by forming this series of geographies that, from their unique extension, approach others and are paired in something of their own.
Duos, similar or distant, symmetrical or chaotic, close or remote, smooth or rough.
Invisible magnets enable interaction with the ceramic pieces, making it possible to relocate them spatially in a new open-ended work.
Thus, different territorial positions are delimited, facing proximity or solitude, open to allowing themselves to be completed from their connection.
