"In my practice I have used cloud aesthetics on many occasions, referring to the ability to open up dialogue and
ideological freedom, concepts that are fundamental to the understanding and postulation of art. In this series, I explore
different types of solid materials used for quite pragmatic purposes such as ceramics and glass, which I use to represent
one of the most ethereal materials, steam. In addition to materialize one of the most abstract shapes in nature, trying that
by doing it, the figure does not lose the figurative sense or meaning. The title alludes to the embodiment of femininity and
the “Meta” prefix, acts as a universal statement about the clouds and their omnipresent condition." - Gabriel Rico
