The Rio de Janeiro based visual artist and sculptor Gabriela Ezcurra visited Awasi Iguazú to participate in the Awasi Artist Immersion.
While-in-residence, the artist had the opportunity to meet the local artisan Inés Fertl and visit her studio, exploring diverse techniques to work with Ñaú mud from the Misiones riverbank. Following this, Ezcurra crafted an installation for our main lodge titled ‘Suelo Vivo (Living Soil)’, which replicates leaves and seeds that blanket the floor of the Atlantic rainforest.
Gabriela Ezcurra’s curious and adventurous spirit, aligned with the Awasi excursions, is evident in the primary focus of her artistic work: nature. The encounter of the exotic flora and fauna of Iguazú inspired the artist to watercolour paint and depict the mesmerising beauty of a toucan.
Immerse yourself in this journey…
