FARRAH CARBONELL

BODYSCAPES Group Exhibition @load.gallery Echo of the Body She moves not to express, but to be taken. In this flicker of form, I feel her dissolve— not gone, not held— just suspended in the hush of something unnamed. ———- Eco del Cuerpo No se mueve para expresar, sino para ser tomada. En este destello de forma, la siento disolverse— ni ida, ni retenida— sólo suspendida en el silencio de algo sin nombre.

Farrah Carbonell, The Sublime Gaze, a part of the Bodyscapes group exhibition “I create visual works that explore states of becoming, where image and sensation blur. Whether through figures, landscapes, or abstraction, I build compositions that hover between visibility and disappearance. Working primarily with digital media, I’m interested in atmosphere, opacity, and how visual tension can construct spaces where meaning is felt more than fixed.“ Farrah Carbonell @far.rah is a New York-based artist whose practice centres on digitally constructed imagery shaped by motion, light, and atmosphere. Spanning portraiture, landscape, and abstraction, her compositions are united by a quiet intensity that lingers between clarity and disappearance.  In The Sublime Gaze, the body becomes a quiet terrain of sensation, resistance, and revelation. Each portrait unfolds gradually, as an act of becoming, a suspended intimacy, a soft rupture in the cycle of spectacle—where the body is not reduced, but revered; not narrated, but felt. The digital here does not disembody; it extends, becoming a vessel for presence as atmosphere. These images hold space for the unseen, the unresolved, the trembling stillness of simply being.  To witness these figures is to encounter a mirror that does not reflect, but quietly reveals.

Drawing on the visual language of photography and cinema, her images unfold through atmosphere, motion, and duration, resisting fixed meaning. Her work approaches the image not as representation, but as an encounter, one that is felt, withheld, and quietly sustained over time.

El momento ardió. Ahora persiste. Lo real no se desvanece. —— The moment burned. Now it haunts. Nothing that real disappears.

Apenas rozamos el borde. Y ya arde. We barely touch the edge. And it already burns.

Recuerdo cada palabra no dicha… — Je me souviens de chaque mot non prononcé. — I remember every unspoken word.

Tout ce qui disparaît n’est pas perdu.
