In the age of the Anthropocene, the Kantian concept of the sublime — that feeling of awe and disquiet in the face of nature’s immensity, which reminds us of our own finiteness — takes on a new significance. The works in this series explore the contemporary relevance of this aesthetic and philosophical experience, placing the sublime in dialogue with the reality of climate change and today’s human context.

Through painting, sculpture, and installations, the works reflect on geological and environmental transformations, connecting them not only to Kant’s vision of the sublime but also to a more contemporary perspective: Nietzsche’s concept of the will to power.

The series challenges the traditional divide between human and non-human, organic and inorganic, suggesting that facing today’s challenges requires a radical shift in perception. Metamorphosis becomes a key concept for rethinking both our identity and our relationship with the world.

Born from the desire to reinterpret the sublime in light of our era’s tensions, the series is shaped by research and materials gathered between Mexico and Italy — volcanoes, gardens, rare plant species — giving rise to powerful visions animated by the force of nature itself.

The first exhibition of the series, SUBLIMINALIA, was presented during Berlin Art Week 2024 at Neurotitan Gallery. A second exhibition, Under the Volcano, is scheduled for November 2025 in Berlin.
