Some Words

Solaristic Notes from an Implicated Trinity:\n\nThe sculptures presented are expressions about the essence of nature. An autonomous nature, with its own rules, always changing, so fragile, beautiful, and yet brutal. It is the archaic force of evolution, in a state of permanent transformation.\n\nOrganisms with a life of their own, which reveal themselves in a process of dialogue between the entropic and reason/technique. Expressions extracted from nature. Moments petrified in their three-dimensionality through goldsmithing techniques.\n\nWe propose an unbridled manifestation of reality and of the matter from which emanate forms that evoke and invoke the primordial power of nature. The aim of this work is to explore the formal limits of the organic/natural world, thereby transgressing the boundaries of sculpture.\n\nHugo Bruce\nImplicated Artist\n\nThanks to Hugo Bruce's work I discovered a new world of organic existence.\n\nHis sculpture transports me to the nineteenth century, to the jungles, forests, and rivers of Latin America that traveling artists such as Ferdinand Bellermann and August Morisot captured in their impressions of virgin, sublime, and enchanted nature.\n\nSince I first saw his work I decided I wanted to live with Hugo's work to lose myself in his mysterious world.\n\nTiqui Atencio\nImplicated Collector\n(Acquisitions Advisor at the Guggenheim in New York and the Tate Modern in London)\n\nHalfway between abstract expressionism, alien goldsmithing, and underworld rhizome, Hugo Bruce has managed to synthesize in works charged with ambiguity a language that connects psyche, nature, and artifice.\n\nA true wild neutron bomb, don't miss it.\n\nJacobo Fitz-James Stuart\nImplicated Gallerist
