Bremond Capela is pleased to present the first solo exhibition in France by Ecuadorian artist Sofía Salazar Rosales.

Salazar Rosales’s work develops from a sentence she wrote: “Hay cuerpos cansados por el viaje que buscan enraizarse” (There are bodies tired from the journey that seek to root). Her interest focuses on how objects have a potential to show social, political, and  economic contexts, specifically linked to the displacement of humans, goods and other objects.

She conceives her pieces as spaces of reconciliation to negotiate between the object, the material and their history throughout different contexts. Reconciling is also a constructive gesture in her work, which continuously transforms the objects with particular focus on their emotional effect. Salazar Rosales and her sculptures have a relationship of affection. The artist says: “We are contextual, but also sentimental.”

Sofia Salazar is a gold medalist of the Art Basel Awards in the Emerging Artist category (2025), She has recently completed a master’s degree with distinction at the School of Fine Arts (ENSBA Paris) in the ateliers of Tatiana Trouvé, Petrit Halilaj and Álvaro Urbano. And recently completed the two-year residency at De Ateliers in Amsterdam. She recently was the object of a solo show at Kunsthalle Sankt Gallen, Sankt Gallen, CH (2025) and was part of the Lyon Biennale, Lyon, FR (2024).
