some things
can only be felt
A space where art, matter
and meaning meet.
The evolving practice of Erica Soria
i make by being
i am by making
the human behind the practice
I make things and create spaces that bring us closer.
Still curious, still becoming.
I'm an Argentine artist living and creating in Aotearoa New Zealand.
My practice is an ongoing exploration of what it means to be human: to change, to belong, to let go, to begin again.
Clay is one of the ways I think, feel and make sense of the world, but my work is not limited to one material or one form.
I value freedom, curiosity and the space to follow what feels alive. My practice evolves with me, moving between ceramics, sculpture, weaving, writing, ritual and whatever new territory calls to be explored.
Ayni Alchemy is where this ongoing exploration takes shape, a space to create, experiment and remain open to becoming.
let´s dive into the ether together
Some encounters begin with a place, others with an idea, a feeling or a question. I'm interested in what can happen when different worlds meet and something unexpected takes shape.
-
Creating environments that invite people to slow down, become present and encounter a place, material or idea differently. Each installation responds to its setting and can evolve as it enters a new space.
-
Bringing my own artistic perspective into dialogue with other people, disciplines and places. These collaborations grow from shared curiosity and the freedom to explore what might emerge when different ways of seeing meet.
-
Creating experiences through objects, spaces, atmosphere and human connection. From intimate encounters to larger gatherings, each project finds its own form in response to the people, place and intention behind it.
-
A space to look at your creative process from another perspective. Through conversation, observation and questions, I help you notice possibilities, make unexpected connections and discover directions you may not have seen before.
-
Not every possibility arrives with a name. Sometimes, a work sparks a question, an idea or a connection that doesn't fit neatly into a category. I'm open to hearing what you see in my work and exploring whether there's a meaningful way forward together.
