Sculpture made by hand and ceramic extruder with black refractory clay.

When the clay is still wet, the clay coils fall and interlace without the intervention of my hands. They form a volume of interlocking curves. This volume enters the kiln as it is, preserving the clay’s organic and fluid shapes. This way, the fall of the coils is captured as a photograph in these sculptures and evokes the turnmoils of life, as well as the contingency of matter.

With this series, I explore the analogy between clay and our bodies, which turns into an account on movement and stillness, a research on the reactions of matter to change and contingency.

In the relationship between the forms there is a narrative of proximity, of contact, of encounter, and it is probable that this narrative is not only composed of concepts but fundamentally of sensations. In Oscar Barbery's work, sculpture is the verb, it is the action and it is the subject, its formal constitution is the result of representations of the self-determined movement of matter: undefined bodies that attract, compose and project themselves. The relationship between them suggests a new nature or an amplified nature. A Latin American artist who has lived in Europe for more than 10 years, he works mainly with clay and its ceramic processes. He has been selected by the Museo internazionale delle ceramiche de Faenza in its 2021 residency programme and currently lives and works between Barcelona and Rimini, Italy. His work has been acquired by museums such as the MAC and the Museo Nacional de Arte de Bolivia. She holds a Master's degree in contemporary artistic creation from the University of Barcelona, where she developed POSTRE, a performance festival with 4 editions. She has had solo and group exhibitions and her work has been published in various Latin American contemporary art publications.
