Textures of Time by Sofia Gomez Fonzo and Rachel Weschke
Time in Ibiza is a multilayered presence.
Olas Gallery presents a collaborative exhibition and exploratory conversation in photography and clay by Sofia Gomez Fonzo (Olas Gallery) and Rachel Weschke (Vessel Studio).
Using the landscape and coastline of Ibiza, the yellow sun of ochre, the white salt of the moon, black velvet nights that breathe, the nostalgia of analogue that provides a feeling of sun kissed assurance and memories.
This is seen through Sofia’s photography and Rachel’s use of clay as a synthesis of both nostalgic and geological time showing that really we are all connected.
In allowing life to unfold, we also make space for the unforeseen: for tension, for rupture, for the quiet emergence of the unexpected. These so-called accidents are not interruptions, but openings—instances where control loosens and something beyond intention comes into view.
It is within the creative process that these surprises are either resisted or embraced. Sofia and Rachel work from within this threshold, inviting contingency into their practice and allowing the work to be shaped by elemental encounters.
From 2nd June to 4th July at Olas Gallery, Santa Eulalia
