This minimalist artwork features a row of six identical metallic sculptures arranged in a simple, linear composition against a plain white background. The sculptures appear to be abstract, geometric forms, possibly representing some type of mechanical or industrial object. The uniform placement and repetition of the identical elements create a sense of order and rhythm, inviting the viewer to contemplate the interplay of form, material, and space. The artist's precise and disciplined approach to the arrangement suggests an interest in exploring themes of uniformity, standardization, and the industrial aesthetic. ...
ASMA is an artist duo formed by Matias Armendaris (b. 1990, Ecuador) and Hanya Beliá (b. 1994, Mexico). They live and work in Mexico City. Their work uses allegorical figures and evocative architectural spaces exploring formal interrelations between painterly and sculptural expressions. They employ fictional narratives which include forms of nature interwoven with psychoaffective contemporary landscapes. As a result of a collaborative process the work focuses on hybrid and polluted forms both in a material and conceptual nature. They explore a nostalgic revisitation of the past through a metamodern lens which oscillates between critical discourses of identity and belonging with ornate formal explorations of beauty.
