THE BASS MUSEUM | MIAMI | | JANUARY 2021

Adrian Villar Rojas creates large-scale, site-specific sculptural installations, redolent of ruins with a futuristic form rather than an antiquated one, that are embedded with a mixture of found materials such as fossils, fruit, gadgets and other objects which are intended to decompose at different speeds over geological time. In combining the future, the past and an alternate version of our present, Villar Rojas probes existential questions in relation to the temporality of humanity, offering viewers a representation of transitory nature of all things and the universe as a constellation of consequences in which one thing leads to another.
