MARINA DE CARO TAKES PART IN THE EKWC INTERNATIONAL RESIDENCY, THE NETHERLANDS
The Argentine artist is in Oisterwijk developing a project that will conclude once her works have reached different corners of the globe.
Until October 12, Marina De Caro (Mar del Plata, 1961) is taking part in the international residency at the European Ceramic Work Centre (EKWC), a center dedicated to research and artistic and technical development in ceramics, located in Oisterwijk, the Netherlands.
As part of this residency, the artist continues developing Conjurar el horizonte (domesticando la crueldad) [Conjuring the Horizon (Taming Cruelty)], a project that began in 2024 at MAC VAL, France, and will conclude once her pieces have been distributed to different points around the world.

Through the slow, transformative process of ceramics, De Caro will carry out a new stage of the project: a drawing that was part of Conjurar el horizonte will be burned, and its ashes will be used to make the glazes for 11 pieces. Each of these will later be distributed to different places around the world, with the aim of keeping the spell against cruelty alive.
Every year, EKWC welcomes professionals from different disciplines from around the world, offering a space to deepen their practices, develop new lines of research, and foster the exchange of knowledge around contemporary ceramics.
