Hacia lo esencial: prácticas de mediación

Hacia lo esencial: prácticas de mediación brings together Joan Ponç and Sandra Vásquez de la Horra in an encounter that positions artistic practice as a threshold toward deeper dimensions of human experience. The exhibition is constructed through resonance, emerging from affinities rooted in the symbolic, the archetypal, and that which remains at the margins of the visible. The inclusion of Ponç responds to a desire to reactivate his work from a contemporary perspective, opening new layers of interpretation that connect it with current sensibilities. Within this framework, Vásquez de la Horra’s work introduces an intimate and ritual dimension, where drawing operates as a language that traverses the psychic, the spiritual, and the bodily, unfolding images that oscillate between the personal and the universal. Both artists share an approach to creation that exceeds representation, acting instead as a form of mediation between the material and the intangible. Their works do not seek to fix meaning, but rather to generate states of perception—transitional zones where the image opens itself to uncertainty and invites an experience that engages both vision and sensibility. This encounter arises from an initiative by the gallery, driven by the interest of its directors in fostering dialogues across temporalities and reactivating Ponç’s work in relation to contemporary practices, thus encouraging new modes of engagement and interpretation.* brings together Joan Ponç and Sandra Vásquez de la Horra in an encounter that positions artistic practice as a threshold toward deeper dimensions of human experience.
