XXX: Still Life and Fantasy
July 12th – July 18th 2026
Sofia Alazraki Argentina
Sofía Alazraki is a multidisciplinary artist from Buenos Aires, currently based in Madrid, from where she executes projects worldwide. Formed as an art historian and combining various disciplines, she works as a photographer, director, art director, and set designer, overseeing 360-degree projects from concept to execution in the fields of art, fashion and film.
Through still life photography and video, she merges sharp, polished imagery with playful everyday elements charged with emotional connotations. Her background in set design brings a meticulous attention to detail, both in the objects she selects and the way they are portrayed.
Her personal work, which leans toward the surreal and provocative, has been exhibited internationally in galleries and publications, with showcases in cities such as Buenos Aires, Tbilisi, and New York.
Sofia navigates between commercial and personal projects, always imprinting her distinctive signature. She has collaborated with brands such as Jacquemus, Alexander Wang, Alan Crocetti, Loewe, Paloma Wool, and Rimowa, as well as artists including Arca, Mykki Blanco, Barragán, Carlota Guerrero, the Institute for Postnatural Studies, Marina Otero, and Lolo y Sosaku.
The Workshop
This workshop extends my previous Boisbuchet program on animating objects and kinetic systems, where participants explored how compositions of everyday materials could stage and represent a scene, and how material relationships could suggest narrative, gestures and meaning. This new chapter connects to my broader personal practice of using objects to play with desire and the ways something becomes framed as “sexy” or attractive.
Through the design of sculptures and still-life compositions, we will work with the symbolic dimension of eroticism and its derivatives: eros, fetiche, intimacy, pleasure, fantasy, ASMR, and the many forms desire can take beyond explicit representation. A key question is how to talk about a topic by making objects talk about it: how intimacy and agency can be displaced onto material arrangements.
Participants are invited to question through anonymous, playful and experimental exercises, what generates pleasure for them and to articulate desire through indirect, poetic, and material languages. The final outcome is a collective multi-format magazine (installation, photography, video) where objects and stories activate new subjectivities and unexpected connections. No technical knowledge is required to participate, just curiosity, a hands-on mindset, and a willingness to explore the infinite possibilities of play.
