A Portable Landscape
London, UK. January 2023
We are delighted to present Celeste, an artist duo from Mexico, for
their first solo show in the UK. Entitled A Portable Landscape, the
exhibition brings together a selection of textile and copper works by
María Fernanda Camarena and Gabriel Rosas Alemán, including a
seven-metre-wide triptych, which have never before been shown in
Europe. Employing a diverse range of materials and disciplines from
sculpture to painting, Celeste’s work is characterised by a meeting
of the pair’s aesthetic sensitivities. The individuality of each artist is
unified to make space for one collective voice, whose work promotes
coexistence and interaction. Their recognisably muted palette
is achieved with natural dyes derived from their kitchen pantry;
blushing reds, burnt oranges and wispy blonde yellows that convey
an atmosphere of warmth and intimacy.
