“Space junk” which from afar resembles tiny paint specks, are debris left over by humans satellites that are now trapped into the universe. The debris have different scales depending on the point of view.
The shapes were inspired by the forms of actual debris, the paint specks laser cut on each shape represent the perception of space junk in the universe. The sculpture plays with lights and shadows to disorient the viewer.
DEBRIS
These works focus on debris accumulated on a surface.
The wood was carved to create the dimensional effect of the paint. It challenges the traditional ways of painting
The carving is very delicate in order to almost be perceived as a thin layer of paint. When looking closer at the carved areas, the wood grain becomes visible and creates a beautiful natural dynamic.

SABER'S BEADS
These works are inspired by the duality between dark and light alluding to an eclipse. Saber’s beads is the broken arc of illumination surrounding the moon. The gold has been carved with a laser cutter to be damaged and broken. They are references to the relationship between nature and humanity.

TALENT TRANSPLANT by Claire Breukel
"South Florida is a destination for the country's top contemporary artists seeking to reside in a dynamic and lifestyle friendly city. Although studio and living spaces has become increasingly cost prohibitive, artists who have established commercial success and who take advantage of the city's artist studio residency offerings are able to find unique paths to develop their pratices. Over the past two years, these four artists made South Florida their home and are worth following in 2023."
UNTITLED ART FAIR SPECIAL PROJECT
"Untitled Art’s programming, Special Projects, and Monuments series are part of an expanded curatorial platform spearheaded by Artistic Director Omar López-Chahoud in support of the wider arts ecosystem – both globally and locally in Miami. Selected artists, galleries, and non-profits will tackle topics from the environment, to race and diversity, to artificial intelligence in an effort to celebrate new and underrepresented voices."
SPECIAL PROJECTS will be presented throughout the fair that call attention to key issues and new artistic voices:

Rising selected as Favorites from Untitled Miami
Last but not least, we admired Joyce Billet's "Rising" installation
located in the fair's podcast lounge. Made of etched and cut
plywood, benches that explore the tension between the analog
and the digital featured ends backing up to the wall, curling up
the sides of the lounge. "I am interested in duality—positive and
negative forms, presence and absence, darkness and light,"
Billet said. "Rising explores these concepts by engaging both
wall and floor with horizontal and vertical panels, rooted at the
ground, and suspended as they rise. It challenges the traditional
ways of painting by altering the flat surface into a visual, tactile,
and functional sculptural element."
