Love is All invites artists from diverse backgrounds and disciplines to unravel the anatomy of this absolute phenomenon. We seek visual and conceptual proposals that map how love shapes our reality: from the introspective silence of being to the immensity of our shared habitat.
To affirm that love is everything—Love is All—may seem provocative in a contemporary world marked by global fragmentation. However, this exhibition embraces this premise not as a romantic cliché, but as the ontological, driving, and universal force that structures human experience in all its dimensions. Love is the foundation of our existence; it operates as the raw material from which our consciousness and inner refuge are built (The Core), and from which we then project ourselves toward others through an inescapable physical and spatial magnetism (The Gravity).
As a universal phenomenon, affection transcends the individual and becomes the connective tissue that structures our societies through lineages, heritages, and shared rites (The Ritual), demonstrating its true totality by leaving an indelible mark on memory even in the face of loss and the passage of time (The Scar). In a world marked by adversity, love stands as an act of radical empathy and a survival instinct capable of dissolving borders (The Pulse), ultimately expanding into a broader worldview: devotion and sacred symbiosis with the land and planet we inhabit (The Root).
1. Love is the Core: The Origin and Inner Refuge. Love as the raw material of existence. A line that goes to the very marrow of the individual, stripped of embellishment. It seeks works that explore isolation, self-contemplation, and the construction (or deconstruction) of self.
2. Love is the Gravity: The Other, the Body, and Magnetism. Love as an inescapable physical force that attracts bodies and collides universes. This axis maps the alchemy of encounter, spatial tension, and the raw language of human intimacy, transcending languages and cultures.
3. Love is the Ritual: Lineage, Tribe, and Collective Heritage. Love as the unwritten pact that ensures human survival. This line focuses on blood ties, community structures, and ancestral or contemporary rituals that bind us together as a species.
4. Love is the Scar: Memory, Time, and the Mark of Absence. The most irrefutable proof that love is everything is the mark it leaves when it disappears. This axis explores the permanence of affection through loss, nostalgia, and how love mutates to survive time.
5. Love is the Pulse: Resilience, Survival, and Broken Borders. Love as the vital energy and driving force in the face of global adversity. A line for proposals that see affection as an act of fierce empathy capable of transcending conflicts, distances, and geographical divisions.
6. Love is the Root: Territory, symbiosis, and earthly devotion. An expansive worldview that understands love as the anchor to our habitat. This axis invites reflection on the sacred relationship with the earth, nature, and the inescapable responsibility of coexisting with the planet.
