Celina Jure’s (Buenos Aires) background in painting and her connection to dance, both show in her elegant yet dynamic ceramic works.
The argentine artist Celina Jure (Buenos Aires), born and raised in Jujuy, became famous for her large-sized paintings which were developed trough dance and movement, often developed on site at the exhibition spaces.
In the last years Celina Jure dedicated herself more and more towards objects and installations working mainly with clay. The dynamic flow of her paintings can be found in the way she works the clay, respectively in the assemblages of her clay-steles, that seem to loose any time their laborious balance just to end up as scattered fragments on the ground. These fragile objects that seem to constantly seek to maintain their balance are arranged as single objects or forming larger groups.
Selected works by Celina Jure were also shown at FAR OFF, April 27 – 30, 2017 in Cologne.
