Celeste is an artist duo comprised by María Fernanda Camarena and Gabriel Rosas Alemán. Hospitality is central to their shared practice, which often materialises in the form of collaborative public projects. Employing a diverse range of materials and disciplines from sculpture to textiles, their work is characterised by a meeting of the pair’s individual aesthetic sensitivities. They call upon an abstract vocabulary of forms, inspired by the landscape, architecture and bodies both celestial and human, to create compositions which radiate with a feeling of harmony and warmth.
Celeste’s inaugural exhibition took place in 2020 at the Zapopan Museum in Mexico. They have exhibited with The Contemporary Austin, Texas; Museo Amparo, Mexico; The Shepherd Art Center, Detroit; MAĀT Gallery, Paris; Pangée Pangée, Montreal; and Art Paris. In 2023, they had their first solo exhibition in Europe, entitled Celeste: A Portable Landscape and organised by Canopy Collections, London. Their most ambitious commission to date, for Soho House in Mexico City, was unveiled in September 2023.
Further works are available on a commission basis.
