A second solo exhibition by the Catalan artist Berta Sesé in Japan

Arts.  Japan, 04/03/2017

The series ‘Química de l’Ether’ (The Chemistry of Ether), by Berta Sesé, is a display of ethereal lights and colours, a plastic interpretation of the vibratory dance of chemical elements in harmony with cosmic forces. It will be exhibited at the Ind Gallery in the city of Ikoma, in Japan, from 4th March to 7th May.




The painting of Berta Sesé encourages contemplation and meditation due to its deep, free colours and the search for a state of total equilibrium. The main feature of her work is equilibrium. The visual harmony suggests to the observer a calm and peaceful place, like a force of attraction from the back of the painting towards our inner psyche.

Berta Sesé (Barcelona, 1980) moved to Paris in 2002, where she worked as a fashion designer for 12 years. In 2014 she decided to devote herself completely to art. Her work alternates between painting and photography, two forms of expression that she takes to be complementary and unbounded. The two practices are linked by the theme dealt with: the search for the infinitely small and the infinitely large, the idea of quantum and fractal mathematics, energy and spirituality, light and colour, the focus on the cosmic, and the mystery of symbolic order.

Berta Sesé made her debut in Japan with the exhibition Macrocosmos (Macrocosm) at the Ind Gallery in Ikoma in May and June 2016
