Igneous, 2025

Oil pastel on black paper​

​

Fire is alive. It breathes, it trembles, it changes. That’s why it moves us.

​

This exhibition was born from a fascination with fire as an elemental force — but also an emotional one.
It’s not only heat, nor only destruction. It is impulse, refuge, danger, and beginning.

​

As Bachelard wrote, fire is deeply human because it holds contradictions:
it soothes and devours, gives light and casts shadows, creates and consumes.

Igneous brings together works that do not aim to represent fire, but to let it speak.

Sparks, flames, embers — forms that burn to reveal the invisible,
moments that exist only because they are about to disappear.

The Impossible Feast, 2018

Crystallized installation

A table overtaken by salt. Each object — plate, spoon, glass — slowly transformed by time, preserved in a gesture of waiting.

What was once made to be consumed now resists all appetite.

It is a fossil of excess, of rituals interrupted.

This work reflects on the tension between desire and refusal, abundance and emptiness. It speaks quietly of disordered eating, of the weight of what we cannot digest — not just with the body, but with the soul. A feast that cannot be touched, only witnessed.

You Can’t Shake Off, 2017

"Sé lo que quieras ser," said Barbie’s slogan.

But what if that desire is already shaped?
What if what clings to our bodies isn’t freedom,
but a bright, polished model of perfection?

This installation invites us to confront that visual residue:
a floor covered in pink glitter that sticks to your shoes and leaves a trail.

A physical metaphor for how beauty standards seep into the everyday, take root in our desires, and follow us even when we try to walk away.
What sparkles isn’t always harmless.
