CANDELA BADO: INTERIOR STRUCTURE AND TENSION AT JORGE LÓPEZ
The Jorge López Gallery in Valencia is currently presenting Tierra de Nadie, a project by Candela Bado (Montevideo, Uruguay, 1991), curated by Agustina Bornhoffer. The exhibition is the result of Bado's participation in the first edition of the Petrona Program, which she won. The artist developed her proposal during a one-month residency at Miguel Hernández University, as part of the gallery’s second artist-in-residence initiative.

Bado explores the everyday through installations that examine the relationship and interdependence between objects that define domestic space and the external structures that shape it. Focusing on the materials used in the artwork, Tierra de Nadie investigates the movement of bodies within and beyond the home. She incorporates elements such as water, glass, ceramics, and metal, setting them in motion to expand the function for which these spaces were originally conceived.
Her work delves into the role of tiles—not only as separating and bordering elements, but also as surfaces where a transformation of matter can occur. The arrangement of ceramic components creates a system of order and rigidity that either enables or restricts the alteration of pre-existing spatial configurations. This reflects the exhibition’s conceptual approach: an inquiry into constructed environments as spaces of either containment or exclusion. In this sense, the work questions how architectural languages have historically imposed norms of order and separation in habitable space.

Antonio Pichillá (San Pedro de La Laguna, Guatemala) proposes a broad return to the atavistic and ancestral in his recent work, exhibited in the two venues of the Memoria gallery in Madrid under the title Abuela materna (Maternal Grandmother).
