We present a solo project by the artist Luc\u00eda Bay\u00f3n, where recent works are combined with new pieces that stem from the research initiated during the Gasworks residency (London, 2024).
Bay\u00f3n\u2019s practice primarily manifests through sculpture, focusing on the articulation of compositional and formal processes that migrate from language as a starting point to other forms of presence, considering the relationship between forces, voids, and intervals in relational space.
The pieces presented here arise from different exercises of folding, refolding, and torquing up a plane, until they reach a volume that encloses an empty space. The new works explore plastic exercises in nodal articulation, such as the mathematical principle of the M\u00f6bius strip, which turns a plane into a continuous surface. These flexible continuities bend, curve, and stretch, knots that express ideas of binding, connection, and circuit. Torque \u2013 a word of Anglo-Saxon origin, translated into Spanish as the effort of torsion \u2013 affects formal articulation of a choreographic grammar in space, channeling exercises of potency and tension.
Thus, a dividing piece is constructed in the space, which simultaneously blocks and directs the passage and gaze of the audience. The organic line \u2013 the space between the elements \u2013 draws attention to how two dimensions transform into three; it is topological as the form of empty space. These voids can be understood as spaces of mediation: it is this nothingness, which otherwise escapes readability, that invites metaphorical elaboration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Giving way to gradual transformation from a context of manual production to the use of industrial processing techniques \u2013 such as the casting of bronze pieces \u2013 and the insistence on recurring gestures, the practice adopts a sensitivity to entangle the residual in a slow becoming.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Luc\u00eda Bay\u00f3n (Madrid, 1994) has been represented by Belmonte since 2021 and has participated in four of our exhibitions, two solo exhibitions \u2013 ese entred\u00f3s and Attente \u2013 and two group exhibitions \u2013 Claro del Bosque and Querida tierra que oscurece. She has also exhibited recent works in spaces and institutions such as Halfhouse (Barcelona, 2024), Fondation Fiminco (Paris, 2024), La Capella (Barcelona, 2023), Sid Motion Gallery (London, 2023), Centro Bot\u00edn (Santander, 2022), Tenerife Espacio de las Artes (Tenerife, 2022), La Casa Encendida (Madrid, 2021), among others. The CA2M will host her first institutional solo exhibition in 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
