Pareja (2023)
Tzalam (Lysiloma spp.)
Diego de Romay investigates the conceptual mechanics of the bond through a process of direct subtraction, executing Pareja in collaboration with master craftsmen from Bacalar. In contrast to Giacometti’s material reduction, Romay expands form from within the block to preserve its inherent organic density. The sculptural operation is framed as a continuous negotiation between material intelligence and spatial dynamics. By subordinating formal intention to the structural conditions of the wood, specifically its density, fissures, and grain, the artist activates negative space as a compositional agent equal to physical mass. The juxtaposition of untreated bark and polished interior planes articulates a material dialectic where the structural unity of the work relies entirely on the tension between opposing physical states.
Diego de Romay is part of “El Palacio a las 4 de la mañana”, a group show curated by Alberto Rios de la Rosa @ariosdel at Saenger Galeria. @saenger_galeria

The exhibition takes as its point of departure ‘The Palace at 4 a.m. (1932)’ by Alberto Giacometti, a sculpture the artist linked to a six-month period spent in the company of a woman with whom, night after night, he built a fantastical, fragile palace out of matchsticks. Within that confession reside several foundational ideas like spatial construction as a metaphor for emotional states, the inherent fragility of every significant creation, and the repetitive act of making as a simultaneous form of knowledge and desire. Giacometti’s piece crystallized surrealism’s distinctive capacity to transform intimate experience into oneiric architecture, and it is from that premise that the ten artists gathered here propose works that transmute material, political, and existential urgencies into visual constructions inhabited by ghosts, memory, and longing.

I haven’t posted in two years but today I couldn’t resist. I wanted to dedicate a post to Emily, a talented friend and artist. She is one of those people you simply want to see do well, and you’re filled with joy when they do.
I was thrilled to make her show opening last Thursday at the Magritte Museum in Brussels: “Emily Mae Smith x René Magritte”. I stepped inside the exhibition that commingled the works of both artists, and discovered something very interesting. I felt like two friends had gotten together, a proud old mentor and the shinning protege; the dialogue is poignant, playful, and filled with the reverent irreverence that only true friendship can afford. Banter of the best kind. The truth is one died before the other was born, yet the complicity between them felt very much alive.
Emily, I am proud of you. I can only say that one feeling surpassed all others: “you deserve it”.
The show will be on view until March 2nd 2025. Book your trains, flights, boats or put on your walking boots to make your way to this unique show.
