Exclusive activity for MACBA Friends
We invite you to visit the exhibition Teresa Solar Abboud: Bird Machine Dreamguided by its curator, Claudia Segura.
This project arises from the interest CA2M and MACBA have in showing Teresa Solar Abboud‘s most recent work in a exhibition only. The main idea of the exhibition is to make reference to the relationship with matter, language and bodily production through a museography that varies, changes and expands in very different ways in each institution’s space.
Teresa Solar Abboud: Bird Machine Dream establish a dialogue between fiction and realityand delves into narratives surrounding the process of juxtaposing new forms and plastic finishes that allude to the organic world, together with smooth and shiny industrial aesthetic finishes. Combining recent works with early projects, the exhibition reinforces the presence of sculpture with the practice of drawing —understood here as a reflection and organization articulated around the perception and experience of the origin of each form— as well as the ideas that orbit around them.
