Fresh By David Bestué

David Bestué’s installation transforms Casa de Porras with a suspended ceiling of fiberglass slats woven with local plants like rose petals, hibiscus, and mint. This delicate canopy honors Granada’s ornate vaults, blending natural textures with architectural tradition. Nearby, a filing cabinet displays photographs of Bestué’s “material poems,” sculptures of soft, damp matter challenging fixed views. The work invites reflection on what remains fresh and unfinished, connecting past and present in a subtle, sensory way. The installation is part of a cultural project celebrating the University of Granada’s 500th anniversary, offering a space for contemplation. Visitors are drawn to the tactile details and fleeting nature of the materials, encouraging a slower, thoughtful experience. It suits anyone curious about art that blurs boundaries between nature and structure, permanence and change. Sharing the space with others who appreciate these nuances adds a gentle sense of shared discovery without overwhelming the moment.
