Under the broad title Gaia/Terra, the opening of the new exhibition will be taking place in Rome’s historic centre at Medina Roma Art Gallery on 7 July 2023.
The Earth, as an archetypal deity, as primal material, the Earth as nature, as a country, as territory, as a non-frontier, as soil, as a place, as a call to go further, for the beyond, the Earth as that which brings water and life, as a force field, as a core, as fire, as constant formation, as transformation, as shifting, as air, as a static element. The Earth at its simplest and most sublime beauty, as thought, as contemplation, the Earth as a planet, the Earth in its tiniest element – stone, leaf, droplet – the Earth in its entirety, in its discrete parts, in the not obvious, in its constant deconstruction and unceasing reformulation. The Earth at its own pace, in its relentless rebirth.
