Britain's What's On Event Guide
Migratory Movements
Elizabeth Xi Bauer presents Migratory Movements, a solo exhibition of new works by Oswaldo Maciá, developed during his 2025 residency at the gallery’s studio. Known for his pioneering multisensory practice, Maciá expands sculpture beyond the visual, using sound, smell, drawing and fresco to explore the invisible systems that sustain life. The exhibition celebrates movement, cross-pollination, and environmental interdependence.
For more than two decades, Maciá has developed what he calls Olfactory Acoustic Composition—a new artistic language grounded in the “volume of smell” and the “volume of sound.” His compositions draw on field recordings made in rainforests, deserts, and polar regions, combined with a vast “smell library” developed through years of collaboration with perfumers and scientists.
