Momentos Líquidos - Liquid Moments in Kitchen for Life, Madrid

A selection of 16 drawings of the ritualistic series Liquid Moments is on view and available at the showroom Kitchen for Life from Paula Rosale Studio in Madrid.

Liquid Moments celebrates the daily ritual of coffee, uniting it with that of drawing. Every day for a year I made one or more drawings with my morning coffee, literally! Wherever I was - in the studio, in the kitchen at home, or on a terrace or in a café - I poured the hot liquid and applied color to it, letting it flow together to find a form, to suggest a message, and together to compose a narrative.

In this lively space there are also two other works on view: a selection of three Body Parts (2021), and the customized framed drawing A Kind Of Rainbow (2024) from the also ritualistic series of drawings Periscope.

Performance and installation "Between Us Skin"

Exhibition "Sharing intimacies. (Ex-?)architects explore the self"
21 May - 27 June 2024
Delft University of Technology
Curated by Javier Arpa Fernández and Kornelis Fragakis.

Beyond the usual focus on art related to design, the exhibition (organized by BK Public Programs) explores art and intimacy. While recognizing the value of art interventions in the public realm, the exhibition engages with intimacy as a form of communication, that not only includes but also requires a sense of community.

Sharing Intimacies features five artists with backgrounds in architecture who will offer unique perspectives and expressions on themes such as human connection, body, identity, empathy, and storytelling.

“Open Studio” in a Kitchen in Madrid

Starting the new year strong! With a selection of works on paper, and a live-drawing session, I gathered in Madrid some of my favorite people among colors, lines, and food. In the kitchen, literally.

The showroom of Kitchen for Life generously hosted my open studio. The colorful stories of the series “Liquid Moments”, “Periscope”, and “Body Parts” were boldly fitting the themes of nutritious art and social togetherness.

Exhibition “Einsichten: Visarte Zürich & Friends"

Visarte Zurich is once again organizing a major exhibition at the Photobastei at the end of the year. Entitled "Insights 2023: Visarte Zürich & Friends", the exhibition brings together over 200 artists and works that provide an insight into Zurich's diverse art scene. It is curated by Nicolas Bischof, Tanja Breu, Clare Goodwin, Lorenzo E. Metzler, Sandi Paucic, Len Schaller.

I participate with a ceramic sculpture from the project-in-progress “Unsere Zeit” (Our Time).

The exhibition is part of the tradition of annual exhibitions that Visarte Zurich has initiated and successfully organized for several years. The exhibition brings a presentation of works by Visarte Zürich members, and additional guests, exhibition spaces and individual positions who have been invited to present their own curatorial program.

FOREVER: Artist edition Tally Marks x Alicia Velázquez

A lost city upon a smile, diamonds, and fish among bubbles. Now tattooed on the skin of a unique fashion accessory.

With a live-drawing performance in the intimacy of the studio, I interpreted a story for fashion brand Tally Marks, on - and with - one of their signature harness bags.

Tally Marks’ accessories are made in small editions by artisans in Lebanon and with Italian materials.

Contact me for inquiries about this unique edition .

New curated selection of drawings from the series "Periscope"

Between 7.07.2023 and 21.08.2023 an available selection drawings from the ritualistic series “Periscope” are on view in a dedicated page: Little Absurdities collection.

“Little Absurdities” is based on the myriad of tiny details always present in the drawings of the series. Dreamy characters, absurd objects, body parts, and omnipresent cultural symbols are some of the stories inside each of these universes depicted on paper.

All drawings of the collection “Little Absurdities” are available for purchase at a special price.

Ongoing production of ceramic portrait series

Since the fall 2022 I have been embarked in the production of a long, challenging and also wonderful project named “Our Time” (Unsere Zeit).

In “Our Time” I continue exploring the intersection of performance and ceramic objects. Performance in this context is understood as a series of intimate, one-on-one encounters.

“Our Time” consists on a series of interviews to a number of residents at the elderly home Bürgerasyl-Pfrundhaus in Zurich. In the second part of the process I produce a series of abstract portraits using painted fired clay as medium.

“Our Time” is a project supported by a Covid-19 Grant from the City of Zurich.
