Cristina Iglesias

From October 3, 2025 to January 25, 2026

Cristina Iglesias (Donostia, November 1956) has defined a sculptural vocabulary that builds immersive environments that refer to architecture, literature, psychology, mechanics and contextual factors of the environment, and unites these disciplines.

Based on a language that combines fictional and natural forms, her works include from suspended pavilions and lattices, to corridors, labyrinths and walls impregnated with texts, as well as graphic work and drawings made on supports of various materials. In this way, she redefines space in a poetic way, blurring the lines between interior and exterior, and between what is organic and what is artificial. Her installations evoke the memory of the landscape and refer to geology and the subsoil, creating unexpected sensory experiences for the viewer.

For the La Pedrera-Casa Milà exhibition, the artist is working on a proposal of works that can refer to an architectural-sculptural dialogue, ranging from the organicism of the elements of nature —also present in the building that will host the exhibition— to the strictest architectural or sculptural geometry. The exhibition unfolds as a sequence of movements through the fluid spaces of Gaudí’s architecture and the closed and open spaces of Iglesias’s work, creating a dynamic interaction between physicality and observation. Some of Iglesias’ large-scale installations will be shown, such as Habitaciones and Pasajes, as well as a selection of two-dimensional works.
