ENTER ART FAIR 2025

The works of Andrea Torres Balaguer, Max Cobalto, Jordi Alcaraz, LaurentLo, Ruben Rodrigo, and Xevi Solà each speak to different aspects of this invisible architecture. Each artist, through their unique lens, uncovers the often-overlooked elements that influence the visible world. Their practices not only engage with materiality, but also with the intangible—the emotional, the conceptual, and the environmental. This exhibition is a contemplation on what sustains and shapes the surface of things, exploring how these hidden foundations go unnoticed yet remain essential to our understanding of life, art, and identity.

Andrea Torres Balaguer’s photographic narratives delve into the psychological undercurrents of human experience, using dream-like imagery to reveal the emotions and desires that govern relationships and self-identity. MaxCobalto, through his precise use of color and form, uncovers the hidden forces of creative thought, revealing a delicate balance between spontaneity and control in the artistic process. Their works unveil the unseen emotional and conceptual underpinnings of both personal and artistic life.

In parallel, Jordi Alcaraz’s mixed-media sculptures explore the material and structural foundations of our surroundings. His focus on the interplay of light, shadow, and texture calls attention to the hidden architectural and physical scaffolding that supports the visible world. Laurent Lo’s bamboo sculptures, with their fluid organic forms, embody the spiritual and environmental underpinnings of life, pointing to the interconnectedness of nature, culture, and creativity.

Ruben Rodrigo’s paintings, with their fluid brushstrokes and monochromatic tones, explore the sensory and tactile underpinnings of perception, inviting the viewer to sense the hidden rhythms and energies that shape our understanding of color, light, and space. Finally, Xevi Solà’s emotional and gestural paintings reveal the forces beneath human expression, evoking the raw, foundational layers of experience that often remain unnoticed.Together, these artists create a dialogue about the hidden dimensions of existence—those forces that lie beneath the surface yet shape every aspect of our reality. Underpinnings becomes a space for reflection, where the visible and invisible converge, and where the unseen layers of emotion, structure, and creation are brought into focus. It is an invitation to consider not only what is present but what sustains and defines it, an ode to the essential yet often unnoticed foundations of life and art.
