TESSITURA
Carla Beretta – Rita Simoni- María Emilia Marroquín

The word tessitura refers to a situation or combination of factors and circumstances that characterize a situation at a given time.
Following this conceptual line, we can say then that climate change is one of the conjunctural factors that goes through everything, there are no matters or territories that are left out. In the exhibition we present within the framework of the “Art Week in edition #9 of SACH open studios”, Rita Simoni gives shape to drippings and decompositions of cities with clay and, in turn, creates new beings that she calls “Biolarios”, which project the invisible consequences.

Carla Beretta observes how the smoke in her native Rosario stains and forever modifies the river and her habitat. A large-format textile work exhibits the increasingly desaturated colors of Paraná, and also the poetry of Juan L. Ortiz is present in his work “Dream on fire”, contributing poetic subtlety to the exhibition.

María Emilia Marroquín focuses on forests and vegetation, in her recent work Pozo Ciego. Through drawing, she narrates the profound alteration that forest fires leave in nature and the blindness of a predatory system that does not measure its consequences. However, the force of plant sap resists into the green “creeper” of glass and wires.

Finally, or at the beginning, we are welcomed by a shared installation on the sidewalk of the workshop, where the debris and dry branches of the species found in Rita and María Emilia's journeys through their daily habitats are intertwined, questioning the plots and mutations. storms that humanity precipitates.
