Háptica brought together four artists whose work is made through touch: breaking down fibres, shaping pulp, pressing pigments and building up layers of material. These gestures become ways of attuning to bodies, places and moments of transition, as many of the works grew out of mountain trips, journeys to unfamiliar places and moves between homes, experiences that sharpen awareness of the present. Linking the sensitivity of the skin to geological forms such as sediment and tectonic shifts, the exhibition proposed a way of knowing grounded in the body rather than in sight or text alone. The four artists share a deep technical and sensory knowledge of their materials, driven by curiosity and a constant urge to experiment. Valentina Attolini presented material drawings, a painting and two monotypes.
