This exhibition presents Marita Setas Ferro’s textile sculptures as material reflections on marine ecosystems, care, and environmental precarity. Through crochet and knitting, techniques rooted in heritage and slowness, marine forms emerge as soft architectures shaped by repetition, labor, and attention. The works engage sustainability as an embedded practice, using recycled and upcycled materials to foreground responsibility within the act of making itself. Light, texture, and scale evoke the fragile equilibrium between regeneration and erosion that defines underwater life today. Rather than depicting nature, the sculptures invite proximity and embodied response, allowing touch, softness, and vulnerability to operate as forms of knowledge. Situated between craft and contemporary sculpture, the exhibition proposes sustainability as an ethical relationship between material, memory, and the fragile systems we inhabit and risk losing.
