A bronze tree hangs from the ceiling as if it was an orchestrated DNA chain. Its links find their position thanks to a flourishing rod of copper crystals that pull and align the structure.

Copper is the core of the Chilean Andes, the place where I was born and raised. It is also the core of bronze, the half-blood metal that finds its strength through the aggregation of tin. The complement of both creates a new material with emergent properties.

We are bronze bodies. Like many Chileans, our family is a mixture. To celebrate our heritage, it is crucial to embrace the weight of our origins.

Ace of Wands is a mineral metaphor for the emancipation of miscegenation, a celebration of the potential flourishing energy that emerges from the meeting of two realities.
