Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.
This contemporary artwork features four tall, cylindrical columns made of a rough, textured material, likely concrete or plaster. The columns are uniform in size and positioned in a symmetrical arrangement, creating a sense of balance and order. At the base of the columns are two smaller, cube-shaped elements made of a dark, natural stone material. The overall composition and the use of simple geometric forms suggest a minimalist aesthetic, emphasizing the inherent qualities of the materials and the overall form of the sculpture. The historical context or the artist's intention behind this piece is not immediately clear, but the work invites the viewer to contemplate the relationship between the different elements and the overall visual experience. ...
Julia Rometti (b. 1975, Nice). Lives and works in Mexico City, where she has made her home for over a decade, following a journey that led her through various diverse landscapes. This period of constant movement marked the genesis of her artistic journey, during which she has employed versatile mediums such as photography, film, and collages, as well as ready-made and found objects, to explore non-Western ontologies through the lenses of fiction and speculation. Under the name of the artistic duo Rometti Costales, she explored issues that encompass the human and the non-human, considering nature a space of political inscription. Julia Rometti's practice recognizes the conditions and materiality as having agency and capacity for intentional action that challenge anthropocentrism and traditional hierarchies, encouraging other perspectives on the world, where all entities are seen as active participants in shaping their environments and futures.
As a solo artist, Julia Rometti has actively participated in artistic events and exhibitions, including her residency at Gapado AiR Residency, Gapado, KR. She has had solo exhibitions at Museo Anahuacalli, CDMX, MX and PEANA, CDMX, MX. In 2024, she is scheduled to be part of a group exhibition with a new commissioned project at Museo Tamayo, CDMX, MX. During her collaboration with Rometti Costales, she engaged in exhibitions at influential institutions such as Museo Jumex and SAPS Sala de Arte Publico Siquieros in CDMX, MX; Museo de la Solidaridad Salvador Allende in Santiago, CL; Centro de Arte Dos de Mayo in Madrid, ESP; Centre d'art Contemporain la Synagogue de Delme, Delme, FR; Kunsthalle Basel, Basel, CHF; Casa del Lago in CDMX, MX; and Midway Contemporary Art in Minneapolis, US; among others.
