[OPENING] To Make A World Out of Sediment and Sky
âđ«đ· To Make A World Out of Sediment and Sky Commissariat Valentina Buzzi
âLa Galerie Artverse a le plaisir de prĂ©senter TO MAKE A WORLD OUT OF SEDIMENT AND SKY, une exposition duo rĂ©unissant les artistes Camilla Alberti et Wendi Yan, sous le commissariat de Valentina Buzzi.
âSâinspirant du titre et de la structure narrative du roman spĂ©culatif dâUrsula K. Le Guin publiĂ© en 1985, Always Coming Home, lâexposition met en acte lâimpĂ©ratif poĂ©tique de façonner un monde selon une Ă©thique du glanage, assemblant artefacts physiques, matiĂšre biologique, simulations numĂ©riques et mĂ©moires culturelles pour esquisser des futurs collectifs et non linĂ©aires. En sâaffranchissant des catĂ©gories mĂ©diumniques traditionnelles, le projet dĂ©ploie deux plans Ă©lĂ©mentaires d'investigation artistique : le SĂ©diment et le Ciel. Le SĂ©diment ancre les processus terrestres, tactiles et alchimiques qui constituent le socle matĂ©riel de leurs pratiques respectives, tandis que le Ciel embrasse des horizons prospectifs et visionnaires oĂč se dĂ©ploient rĂ©cits, paysages symboliques et atmosphĂšres spĂ©culatives. Au sein de ce cadre, Alberti et Yan sâengagent dans une dĂ©marche vaste de crĂ©ation de mondes (world-building) Ă travers des textiles bio-imprimĂ©s, des sculptures mĂ©tamorphiques, des vidĂ©os en images de synthĂšse (CGI), des plaques de cuivre photo lithographiĂ©es et des peintures.

Curated by Valentina Buzzi
âArtVerse Gallery is pleased to present TO MAKE A WORLD OUT OF SEDIMENT AND SKY, a duo show featuring artists Camilla Alberti and Wendi Yan, curated by Valentina Buzzi.
âTaking its title and structural inspiration from Ursula K. Le Guinâs 1985 speculative novel Always Coming Home, the exhibition operationalizes the poetic imperative to construct a world through a gathererâs ethos, assembling physical artifacts, biological matter, digital simulations, and cultural memories into collective, non-linear futures. By moving past traditional medium labels, the project establishes two elemental planes of artistic inquiry: Sediment and Sky. Sediment grounds the terrestrial, tactile, and alchemical processes that form the physical baseline of both practices, while Sky captures the expansive, visionary horizons where narrative, symbolic landscapes, and speculative atmospheres unfold. Within this framework, Alberti and Yan engage in an expansive form of world-building across bioprinted textiles, metamorphic sculptures, CGI videos, photolithographic copper plates, and paintings.
