Forms from Life at Faena Art Center Buenos Aires

When Faena Art Center Buenos Aires hosts Typoe's first exhibition in Latin America, Sala Molinos will be transformed into a surrealist world of labyrinths and fantasy.

Comprised of blocks and towers, "Forms from Life" brings to mind both ancient Rome and the Art Deco facades of Miami, the artist's hometown. Typoe's creation explores the basic geometry, order, and beauty of the physical world, reimagining basic building blocks in tropical colors and classic faux-marble that tease the imagination and invite visitors to construct new worlds for their wildest dreams.

The installation generates new experiences of communal creation and social interaction. At the same time, by conjuring up ruins and losses of deferred dreams, this work becomes a contemporary memento mori—eliciting the inevitable passage of time and a personal journey through youth and beyond.

This exhibition marks a pivotal moment in Typoe's career, representing the first time he was given complete freedom to dream at museum scale.
