Inviting in coloration and grotesque in form, the natural, monstrous sculptures seem alive, as if they might develop and swallow up the remaining house, viewers and all.

In a latest interview, Fàbregas shares that the interactions between house and the physique frequently inform her considering and the way she conceptualizes a bit. “It’s in regards to the structure. It’s about these plenty that you simply put contained in the structure. It’s in regards to the people shifting across the structure,” she says. “For me, my sculptures usually are not simply themselves, it’s all of the issues that occur in the identical house that have an effect on that set up.”

Devouring Lovers is on view by way of January 14, 2024. Yow will discover extra from Fàbregas on Instagram.
