Celestino Boutique

The project begins with the creation of a large-scale design: a piece of furniture that serves as a repository for the artist’s personal archive. A dialogue between familiar objects, paintings and invented elements, emerges from it, where reality, fiction and surrealism intertwine as the artist recounts his life as a fiction. Each object and each image act as fragments of stories that did not always happen, but reveal the logic and relationships inherent to the personal archive. At the same time, the exhibition, which features a curatorial text by Leto Ybarra, reflects on the notion of sculpture and the possibilities of circumventing it, blurring the boundaries between object and installation, and challenging the very meaning of construction.
