Threshold Exhibition

For this exhibition, Marisabel Gonzalez presents a selection of works from her ongoing series of paintings created in a summer studio without walls, exposed to the elements and shaped by the conditions around them. Wind, rain and heat became part of the process, leaving traces that remain visible in the finished works.

The word Threshold suggests a place of transition and challenges the common assumption that change is something dramatic. These works developed in the space between what has been and what is yet to come. Their transformation happened slowly, through accumulation, exposure, and time. That quietness feels very true to the paintings' atmosphere, which invites us to consider change not as something to resist, but as a natural part of becoming.
