Deals not in words, traffics not in dreams and is untouched by time marks François Bucher's first solo show in Colombia since 2015. The works presented in this exhibition highlight Bucher’s creative process of recent years, which has led to the exploration of new paths for self-discovery and the evolution of his artistic practice. Themes such as the fourth dimension, the apocalyptic, science fiction, and popular culture are present throughout Bucher's work, and are connected by his profound interest in healing the individual and collective psyche. This healing process unfolds through deep and expansive work of the mind and spirit—work that becomes his practice.
In a world saturated by the noise of social media and political divisions that intensify social and existential tensions, the work of François Bucher (Cali, Colombia. 1972) emerges as an interdimensional pause that challenges our personal paradigms about reality. Through video, sculpture, painting and literature, Bucher opens a window to a new way of conceiving our relationship with the visible and invisible world. He reflects upon the connections between the sacred and the ancestral from a scientific and metaphysical perspective, bringing us closer to an idea of communal existence where all beings are interconnected, inevitably linked to each other.
