The artist’s activities as husband and wife have long been drawn in a collaborative process, evolving within the spheres of family and community, including that which they share with other artists. Their ephemeral projects have been concerned with keeping the home, finding and defining identity, dealing with hardship of journey, orienting oneself in displacement, sensing presences in absence and accumulating memory. Alfredo and Isabel make use of everyday personal objects which are both abstract and referential as a metaphor for human existence.
Alfredo and Isabel have most recently exhibited 'Belonging: In-Transit' at the 2006 Sydney Biennale. Other collaborative projects include: the 'Dream Blanket Project 2005', Busan Metropolitan Museum (Korea); 'Billboard Project Dust + Water 2004', Gwangju Biennale (Korea) and 'Project M201 In God We Trust 2003', 50th Venice Biennale (Italy). |
