MIGUEL AQUILIZAN, ROBERT KLIPPEL, ISADORA VAUGHAN

Klippel’s abstract, industrial sculptures fuse the organic with the mechanical. His hybrid structures—part insect, part machine, part cathedral—meditate on collapse, regeneration, and the metaphysical tension between nature and industry. Vaughan’s practice extends this dialogue, centering the material intelligence within a context of permaculture. Rejecting human exceptionalism, her work proposes a slow thinking through matter and attentiveness to the complexities and responsibilities of contemporary materiality. Aquilizan works with found objects— natural, industrial and decorative—drawing out embedded histories of use, belief and decay. His assemblages re-inscribe narratives of consumption and disposability with anti-colonial resonances, reanimating detritus and challenging Western tenets of excess.

Through poetic sculptural forms, these artists attempt to understand the dynamism of our entangled lives. Together, they offer distinct yet interconnected perspectives on how materials are shaped by and contribute to broader ecological, industrial and cultural systems.
