In the quiet whispers of the earth, where shadows dance upon shifting sands, lies a delicate threshold between the past and the present. Here, the liminal landscape embodies a state of transition, where spaces intersect at the border of two distinct realities. Amid the obscure contours of a mountain range, a quarry, or a temple, lies a realm of ambiguity, where old structures dissolve, and where new ones have yet to form.
Through an investigation on wild clay from Tapalpa and Chiquilistlán, volcanic matter from Colima, and sugarcane ash from Tala, the body of work Bare Ground in the Liminal Landscape guides viewers in a rites of passage, contemplating on the blurred boundaries between extraction and preservation. In this exploration of subtractive, repetitive, and modular forms, objects of empowerment and spiritual resistance emerge, acknowledging and honouring the process of depletion, and paying tribute to sacred landscapes under transformation.
