L’aire que balla a la boca, de Sara Bonache

Exhibition by Sara Bonache at the Museu de Pintura Contemporània Can Framis in Barcelona, the outcome of the Antoni Vila Casas Painting Prize, combining painting and pastel to propose a non-anthropocentric view of nature.

L'aire que balla a la boca invites a change of perspective: to look at the world as the bee does and to venture into the invisible, much as nectar guides display ultraviolet patterns that orient pollinators, seen through limited human vision.

The project rests on a hybrid practice that combines painting and pastel. Its route moves from the tiny detail to the macro scale, questioning how we perceive the natural world. Forms are transformed, and human beings cease to occupy the centre, becoming part of an ecosystem of mutual relationships, with an interconnected nature that does not revolve around us.

The exhibition is the result of the Antoni Vila Casas Painting Prize, which Sara Bonache won with the work Nocturnes. The approach seeks to invert hierarchies, bring to the centre what was in the background, and understand life as a constant dance of reciprocal transformations, at the Museu de Pintura Contemporània Can Framis in Barcelona.
