The proposal resonates with the oil paintings on wood by Camille Bernard and the Amantecas by Omar Castillo Alfaro, inspired by the weaving of wicker for the former and the featherwork art of Native Mexicans for the latter. Their dialogue also reflects a view of the mineral properties of landscapes, the sculpting of stone by nature or humankind: Bernard’s marine rock meets Alfaro’s bird beak sculptures in alabaster.
