“Blooming in Embers” is a journey that testifies to the possibility of a rebirth of hope and light, while negotiating between forms of resistance based upon mutual giving and elemental forces of destruction and everlasting circularity.
The exhibition explores the realms of future interactions, contemplating the prospect of a post-human world, beyond anthropocentric barriers while considering the Earth and its beings interdependent. It serves as a tribute to the collaborative spirit fostered by 17 international artists brought together by a shared desire to create, physically move to new spaces and embrace vulnerability and flexibility in ideas, practices, and ways of knowing.
“Blooming in Embers” invites the viewer to experience the beauty driven by change and becoming, while building a new interconnected and interspecific reality.
Fabrica’s residency program is curated by the Spanish director and visual artist Carlos Casas, Program Director of Fabrica.
