After an intense period of creation during their artistic residency in Lisbon, ROBUCHE presented the results of this visual research in an exhibition organised by the artists themselves, Javier Rodriguez and Lou Buche.

“Painting, that is breath and duration, pranayama and bebop. Getting lost and finding oneself again in a cyclical, circular and continuous way, improvised, to access the primordial. To discard routines in order to establish new models of relationship with the images that surround us.”

ROBUCHE commissioned to FUTURO STUDIO the design of the space that would house the exhibition of their work in Madrid. The architects’ main idea was to represent at a spatial level part of the creative process through that labyrinth of thoughts.

The visitor could go through in different ways while being able to meet the pieces in an unexpected way and at the same time visualise them from many different perspectives within a common context.

On a material level, they wanted to establish a relationship of contrast with the space, an abandoned industrial building, through enclosures built with aluminium profiles with a high reflective capacity.

These reflections provided by the profiles were capable of extending the atmosphere of the works beyond themselves, giving rise to a confused and dreamlike atmosphere capable of transferring the public somehow into the minds of the artists.
