Our projects are focused on making calls to action on current issues that occupy us through ART.
We are a constantly evolving cell of ideas that fuses architecture, art, design, education and awareness. We choose unique and singular spaces for each staging.
We act as catalysts of talent, a platform to give visibility to emerging creators with a transversal and peripheral look aligned with values that improve society.
As part of ARCO 2025, The Sibarist presents two exhibitions that explore the relationship between environment and identity through art: Being Mediterranean by ELIURPI (from February 28 to March 8) and Urban Vegetable by Solange Contreras (from March 3 to 8).
ELIURPI immerses us in the essence of the Mediterranean through a sensory proposal that combines light, landscape and craftsmanship, while Solange Contreras establishes a dialogue between nature and city, exploring the fusion between the organic and the urban. Two complementary views that invite us to rethink our connection with the environment.
EVENTS
EXHIBITIONS
Inspired by the subtlety of nature, this exhibition envelops us in the silent dance of its waters, where life throbs in light and shadow.
“We dive into the Mediterranean, a space of organic forms and eternal movement that guides us in our creation. We have taken as a reference the Padina seaweed, whose undulations reflect femininity and grace, unfolding in perfect harmony with the marine environment. Its delicate forms, the light it needs to survive and the places it inhabits, evoke a natural dance that we wanted to transfer to this experience.”
This will be the artists’ fourth solo exhibition with ART U READY in Madrid. This exhibition is a tribute to the balance between nature, movement and beauty. An ode to femininity and the connection between the natural and the artistic.

Winner of the call “Thinking the city”, Solange Contreras presents at El Invernadero “Urbano vegetal”, an exhibition that reimagines the urban green infrastructure as an artistic medium where to question the rigid boundaries between the human and the natural. His three-dimensional pieces function as hybrid landscapes where tree branches and chair legs intertwine, braids made of recycled rubber and cotton, ceramics that insert animal pieces, warps woven with plastic and wicker… Each work is born from the combination of plant fragments and manufactured waste found at random, generating creatures that resignify matter and question its original meanings.
