Material
Memory
This
exhibition brings together four voices exploring the boundary between what
remains in memory and the materiality of the here and now. Through rhythmic and
repeated actions of crochet, sewing, weaving, collecting, documenting, and
painting, Ana Bastos, Andri Peteli, Irene Tofa, and Rafa transform raw
materials — scrap fabric and paper, seaweed, urban traces, photography, and
plaster, among others — into vessels of identity. Whether contemplating the
horizon of a childhood beach or the multiple layers of an urban wall, these
artists treat the creative process as a "body under construction."
They invite us to view the world not as a static reality, but as a fluid
landscape where the past is perpetually being woven into the present.
