**Gabriela García D’alta**

A multidisciplinary artist and photographer trained as an architect, they are a born collector, and this inclination is evident in their work. Their creative endeavors are driven by a continual repetition and a deep interest in objects, forms, memories, discards, and the fleeting essence of human existence.
Their exploration centers on the relationship between the ephemeral and beauty, the interplay of the social and the intimate, and the convergence of art and society. Their practice thrives on ongoing reflection and education, blending intuition with rationality.
Inspiration flows naturally through the act of gathering objects, asking questions, sketching, photographing, and engaging in dialogue. While some fragments or projects may initially lack a defined purpose, there is a discernible intentionality in their evolution, shaping both space and time.

Gabriela García's site-specific and participatory installation, emerges from her deep engagement with both the formal attributes and ecological ramifications of polystyrene, or Styrofoam.
García, who has a background in both architecture and photography, meticulously collects and documents everyday objects, inviting a deeper inquiry into their material composition and societal function.
This installation encapsulates García's enduring fascination with the aesthetic dimensions of waste, while also offering a critical reflection on its devastating anthropogenic consequences.
