El Abrazo:: un dialogo tra arte, terra e ecologia nell’arte di Delcy Morelos

Abstract

This article explores the intersection of contemporary visual culture and ecological thought through the work of Delcy Morelos, focusing on her exhibition El Abrazo,
displayed at the Dia Art Foundation in New York in 2024. Using organic materials such as
soil and clay, Morelos highlighted the agency of matter, in a way that can prompt reflection
on indigenous cosmologies and recent ecomedial theory. Her installations challenge anthropocentric perspectives, inviting a multisensory experience that blurs the boundaries
between humans, materials, and the environment.
Keywords: Delcy Morelos; ecomedia; material agency; indigenous cosmology; contemporary art
