Gibrán Turón y Daniel Berman

Galería Gotxikoa invites you to the closing of the exhibition De costa a costa, featuring the work of Gibrán Turón and Daniel Berman.

De costa a costa proposes a visual dialogue between Gibrán Turón (Tepic, Nayarit, 1988) and Daniel Berman (Naranjos, Veracruz, 1982), which arises from the encounter of two tropics that, although they differ in their geographical location, manage to agree on one point: drawing as the axis of their sensitive language.

This exhibition brings together two series that, from different but complementary approaches, propose an expanded interpretation of the quotidian and the human. Through unique visual languages, both artists explore the expressive possibilities of line, stroke and form, using them as fundamental tools to construct and reconfigure the notion of space.

Gibrán Turón has developed a graphic language of his own, where the everyday becomes a realm of transformation. At first glance, his works seem to refer to recognizable scenarios, but soon deviate into territories of visual ambiguity: places that are located in an intermediate dimension between the real and the imagined. In her work, what might appear to be a physical representation unfolds into a world open to multiple interpretations.

In contrast, Daniel Berman delves into the anthropomorphic, using line and emptiness as key tools. Through these elements, he builds compositions that do not seek to represent complete or easily identifiable figures, but to suggest them in a subtle way. His strokes generate abstract spaces in which the human presence fragments and dissolves, emerging more as a visual intuition than as a precise image.

De costa a costa proposes a reflection on space through two graphic approaches that, although different in technique and approach, explore the expressive possibilities of drawing. Gibrán Turón and Daniel Berman approach the ordinary and the human from perspectives that not only seek to represent them, but also to transform them into abstract and suggestive forms. Each series invites us to reconsider the environment from new angles, where line, stroke and form become means to reconfigure our relationship with the everyday life.
