FOCUS ON THE WORK:
As part of Guendalina Malatesta, Guendalina Cerruti’s first solo exhibition, we are pleased to present the artwork: A Circle within a Square, 2026, mannequin, red cotton shirt, jeans, concrete, red marker, metal mesh, brass, tin, lacquer paint, 123 x 58 x 38 cm
Metal meshes, golden threads, and hundreds of butterflies recur insistently according to a logic that borders on obsession, yet is rooted in a slow and disciplined practice. The creative gesture takes on the contours of a manual and patient craft, close to an artisanal dimension in which repetition becomes both method and measure. Within this process, the DIY aesthetic emerges as a form of resistance: a resistance of the sensible against hyper-rationality and standardization, as a practice of redistributing value.
