By Rory Mitchell – 9 February 2023, Mexico City

In Alicja Kwade‘s spellbinding kinetic sculptures, material, space, and weight take centre stage.

Constellations made from obsidian and stone delicately balance above onlookers, beckoning you to look closely at what will be the Polish artist’s first solo presentation in Mexico.

OMR invites visitors into Kwade’s bewildering world of cosmology. Her body of work tackles the societal structures of our world by unpacking theories surrounding planetary phenomena.

Kwade’s use of unusual natural and man-made matter introduces new dialogue surrounding history, material, and quality in contemporary sculpture.

Witness Kwade’s unique eye for installation art in her exhibition Silent Matter at OMR, Mexico City until 25 March 2023.
