Gabriel Orozco — 49 hojas
Gabriel Orozco

49 hojas

*49 hojas* is a delicate and meditative work by Gabriel Orozco, constructed from layered sheets of transfer paper adorned with collage, oil, ink, and graphite. The interplay of these varied media creates a surface that feels simultaneously fragile and dense, where organic forms and gestural marks coexist in quiet tension. True to Orozco's practice, the work invites close looking, revealing an accumulation of subtle traces that suggest both natural systems and the residue of human process.
