Transfromando
la piedra

group exhibition “transforming the stone”
with mármoles covarrubias

guadalajara, méxico, 2024

In my artistic research on natural cycles in yuxtaposition with human ones, I always come across the same conclusion:
“Humans are aware that their time is limited”
As a result, I combine human action on the organic stone in the
form of two clocks, each one with a completely different approach.

LA ROCA
White Traonix marble, stainless steel, batteries
The most organic way to measure time. Based on spontaneity and naturalness. When a natural element is turned into an object with a simplistic addition.

LA MARMOLINA
Black Monterey Marble, glass and “marmolina”
The most precise way of measuring time. Based on rationality, sound frequencies’ waves determine the shape of the clock itself. The stone is transformed in a completely different way, polished with maximum detail.
