Viewing Gabriel de la Mora: FRAGMENTXS

Scoot over to Timothy Taylor to be privy to the piercing beauty of Mexican artist Gabriel de la Mora’s new paintings in his third exhibition at the blue-chip gallery. Piecing together four interconnected and ongoing series, De la Mora presents 29 paintings that dive into the intersection of nature and abstraction. Complied of both organic and synthetic materials, the artists create patterns replicated in the natural world, from butterfly patterns or the ornamentation of bird features to the subtle variety in white hues of eggshells.

Repetitive and deeply meditative, the viewer is brought back to nature. Through found feathers, egg shells and butterfly wings, De la Mora offers a connection to the earth, drawing on both the aesthetic and conceptual elements of the materials and repurposing them into visual art. Holding onto the beauty of nature whilst also changing the function of the materials to pose a perspective of nature. Combining art history, scientific research and creative experimentation, De la Mora makes way for new ways of thinking and seeing. Not to be missed, head to Timothy Taylor to meditate on the work of Gabriel de la Mora.
