About the Pavillion

The project is part of the continuity of the Mediterranean ceramic tradition, establishing a dialogue between the memory of a craft and forms derived from the medieval Christian imagination. The artist recovers plaster moulds found in a pottery workshop and incorporates them into her creation, establishing a link between tradition and contemporary art. Each piece articulates a journey through space and time, in which different concepts such as craftsmanship, spirituality, vestiges and traves subtly emerge. These works function as starting points for a metaphorical journey across the Mediterranean, evoking the connections that have united its peoples throughout history.
