Description
"De nieve y esmeralda" by Sofía Salazar Rosales features a delicate composition with a ceramic base, from which a slender, branch-like structure emerges, ending in two silver, floral forms. The contrast between the warm, earthy tones of the base and the metallic flowers creates an arresting visual dialogue.

Bremond Capela
Bremond Capela’s program is conceived as a living narrative, where each exhibition becomes a chapter that reflects and questions the transformations of our time. The gallery brings together artists whose work addresses themes such as identity, migration, feminism, and technology, alongside broader cultural, political, and aesthetic concerns.
