Proyecto H presents Cuerpo Voraz by Daniel Adolfo.

Daniel Adolfo's latest series of paintings and sculptures continues his exploration of the body as a channel for emotions and memory. These works deconstruct the human experience, leaving behind fuzzy memories of the passage of time. The human figure becomes a living archive, a testimony of our past, present and future.

By challenging the limits of corporeality, the works examine the connection between body and psyche. They explore the tension between physicality, sensuality and self-perception, questioning how we experience and internalize our own bodies. Memory, desire and vulnerability merge with the flesh, revealing the body as a vessel and a reflection of the subconscious.

Through self-observation, Adolfo translates these ideas into fragmented but expressive gestural forms, blurring the line between tangible and intangible, presence and vulnerability. The color red takes center stage, symbolizing birth, passion and intensity-an uncompromising force that embodies both vitality and emotional depth.

Crafted in ceramic and steel, Adolfo's sculptures evoke the complex composition of the human body while alluding to the invisible forces of the psyche. These pieces metaphorically represent our physical and mental landscapes-fragile yet resilient, delicate yet fortified. They embody the paradox of the body as simultaneously vulnerable and protective, reflecting the interplay between external existence and internal consciousness.

This collection invites the viewer to reflect on the human condition, questioning physical and metaphysical limits. The exhibition becomes an excavation of identity, offering a space to interact with universal themes and critically examine the limitations-imposed or inherent-that shape our existence.

The creative process behind these works has been deeply visceral, guided by emotion and intuition. Adolfo embraced vulnerability, allowing instinct to shape each piece. More explosive and urgent than before, these paintings reflect an inner turbulence-an almost cathartic reckoning with the complexities of the body and psyche. Emerging from deep introspection, they push beyond known boundaries to delve into an artistic quest that embraces uncertainty, intensity, and transformation.
