Land matters is a group exhibition that emerged from a sculpture research project at the Universidad Nacional de Colombia in charge of Rosario López. There we collaborated with Luisa Giraldo in the development of a sculptural installation in clay and plaster that investigates the erosion produced by water on rock.
From a photograph of Rosario of Cape Raoul in Tasmania, Australia, we began to imagine and dimension this place from the sensation: the superhuman forces that raised a mountain of rock and formed a border between the sea and the land; the forces of water and wind that erode in a constant movement of collision and sculpt the rocks. With this logic we made a series of sculptural gestures, which convert into matter again the erosion behaviors of Cape Raoul, recognizing our body as a territory that like water, applies forces and is permeated by matter.

La tierra importa
Instalación l 9 piezas en yeso y arcilla
En colaboración con Luisa Fernanda Giraldo
2017
La tierra importa es una exhibición colectiva que surgió de un semillero de investigación de escultura en la Universidad Nacional de Colombia a cargo de Rosario López. Allí colaboramos junto con Luisa en la elaboración de una instalación escultórica en arcilla y yeso que investiga la erosión que produce el agua en la roca.
A partir de una fotografía de Rosario del Cabo Raoul en Tasmania, Australia, empezamos a imaginar y dimensionar este lugar desde la sensación: las fuerzas sobrehumanas que levantaron una montaña de roca y formaron una frontera entre el mar y la tierra; las fuerzas de el agua y el viento que erosionan en un movimiento constante de choque y esculpen las rocas. Con está lógica realizamos una serie de gestos escultóricos, que convierten en materia nuevamente los comportamientos de erosión de Cabo Raoul, reconociendo a nuestro cuerpo como un territorio que al igual que el agua, aplica fuerzas y es permeado por la materia.
