Sérgio Carronha's 'Scale of Permanence' at Monitor Gallery, Rome
Monitor Gallery in Rome presents 'Scale of Permanence', a solo exhibition by Portuguese artist Sérgio Carronha (born Cascais, 1984). The show draws inspiration from the landscape of Alentejo, where the artist lives, and from the concept of Earth as a self-regenerating system. Carronha's ceramic and terracotta sculptures employ archaic techniques, evoking ancient artifacts and decorations recontextualized in a contemporary setting. The central installation, occupying one room of the gallery, is a circular sculpture adorned with blue triangles, symbolizing the relentless cycle of life and matter.
