Bullet shells...This is the new creative challenge that Federico Uribe is facing in his upcoming exhibition “At Peace.” The exhibition presents a series of freestanding sculptures and mosaic paintings entirely composed of bullet shells that play with the juxtaposition between whimsical subject matter, animals or landscapes that are full of life, and an historically emblematic and lethal medium. Once again, and as a recurrent intention in his work, Uribe encourages the viewer to discover, beyond the sole function of an object, an underlying symbolic and aesthetic reality where life overcomes death and beauty supplants destruction.
