He enquires on notions of time and space that are manifested through various forces and agencies such as astronomical phenomena, light, gravity, rocks, plants, volcanoes and rivers.Challenging our fixed notions of time and space, Emiio aims to develop a practice that visualizes our bonds and connections with humans and nonhumans to reconcile with the world’s temporalities and movements.Emilio is interested in the poetic possibilities of the visual arts as a means to establish a connection with the world. Emilio enjoys writing, walking, hiking and stargazing, which are tools that he deploys in his art practice.Learn more by visiting http://www.emiliochapela.com/Follow Emilio @echapela
