Delcy Morelos. Bozar Monumental
About the event
Uterus in Uterus In the summer of 2026, Colombian artist Delcy Morelos creates a new monumental installation for Bozar’s Horta Hall. For this piece, Morelos draws on South American ancestral building techniques and European vernacular architecture. Using local, bio-sourced materials such as earth, clay, and fibres, her sensory works highlight the fundamental role of indigenous knowledge in maintaining both an ecological and spiritual balance. Delcy Morelos (1967, Colombia) is a leading contemporary artist whose practice has become rooted in Europe in recent years, with exhibitions in for example Germany (Hamburger Bahnhof, 2025), Spain (CAAC, 2024), Belgium (Museum Dhondt-Dhaenens, 2024) and her participation in the Venice Biennale, prompting extended periods of work on the continent for various projects. Since 2023, she has also been represented by the Marian Goodman Gallery in Paris with whom she collaborates closely through regular exhibitions in Europe. This highlights how Morelos develops her practice in constant movement, travelling from project to project across the EU. For her project at Bozar, she collaborates with the Belgian architect Jasper van der Linden, engaging in a cross-disciplinary exchange on the use of sustainable materials within a European research context. In collaboration with Mexican architecture studio TAMAT: Rob Allen, Julián Ramírez, and Paula Amín. Material Research: BC architects & studies & materials.
