Artists

Carla Guagliardi

Press release

For her minimalist installations and assemblages, the artist uses industrial materials such as concrete, copper, rubber, iron, wood and glass, which she combines with ephemeral elements such as air and water. The concept of time plays a decisive role here, which the artist visualises as an active, formative material - as in her most recent in-situ works. Her works are characterised by stable and fragile moments, visible and hidden elements and a precarious balance. Whether a rope stretched to the maximum, latex balloons filled with air or a large glass ball full of water hanging in a questionable way in the room - the works tell of their temporality in their parts and as a whole, testify to interdependencies and reveal their vulnerability.
