Description
A gaze upon air as a primordial element, from its allegorical embodiments to the atmosphere enveloping landscapes and figures. The life-giving spirit or sky-agitating tempest, spanning Spain, Mexico, and Panama. From the 16th to the 19th century, air's immateriality becomes tangible presence, revealing the tension between the ethereal and the palpable. Light and shadow sculpt its invisible volume, tracing the breath of a continent.
