NATURAL INTERVENTIONS

In Joshua Jobbs’s work, play has an important role as part of his creative process. Most of his pieces are the result of walking and exploring the public spaces and the sourroundings of different contexts. That is why his work is closely related with the theories and thoughts of writers such as Julio Cortázar, Aldos Huxley or Jorge Luis Borges. In this context, Intervenciones naturales is an exclusive curatorial project by Sybaris in which te relationship between the accident and the unexpected, the natural and the artificial, and the ordinary and the extraordinary of the daily life become into visual and playfull explorations.
