Françoise Vanneraud’s Montaña de Sal, exhibited at Madrid's Ponce+Robles gallery, offers a poetic reflection on memory, impermanence, and the natural landscape. The centerpiece—a striking mound of salt—symbolizes erosion and the passage of time, complemented by elements like a cactus and vinyl horizon, which evoke the arid beauty of a desert. This thoughtful installation invites viewers to ponder the intersection of human memory with natural processes, creating a meditative experience on how landscapes capture and shape both physical and emotional histories.
