Conceptual Rationale

Arámbula’s most recent works explore the self-destructive dynamics of modern societies, driven by an ultracapitalist mindset that has colonized every aspect of being and doing. At the heart of his practice remains a lucid critique of these structures, sustained by a powerful aesthetic and poetic inquiry.

The artist reveals how contemporary civilizations have ceased to recognize themselves as part of nature, the world, the universe. In their pursuit of control—marked by a lack of humility and a misdirected greed—human beings turn against themselves, subjugate other forms of life, and devastate their surroundings.

This disconnection reflects a perception focused exclusively on the material. Modern culture has neglected the inner development of the human being, reducing vital experience to what is visible and measurable, while dismissing the often misunderstood realm of the spiritual, which is inherent to our existence. Understood as the capacity to experience the totality of what we are, this dimension is not an addition, but a natural expression of consciousness. When we ignore it, we become functional, yet profoundly limited.

Arámbula’s works do not merely denounce this reduction—they invite us to pause, to see beyond the obvious, and to question what we have come to accept as normal. What emerges is an honest inquiry into our way of inhabiting the world. A call to turn our gaze inward, to recognize the inner world as the axis of a more conscious existence.
