A quiet ascent towards balance.
Monica Pascual Velasco’s sculptural totems, built from perfectly imperfect spheres, evoke for me a journey towards balance — between body and mind, grounding and elevation.
Their verticality invites us to lift our gaze, to look beyond what weighs us down, and to rise with confidence.
I also see a subtle resonance with Buddhist traditions, where stones can be carefully stacked as symbols of presence, meditation, protection and balance.
But Monica’s work brings something wonderfully contemporary to this dialogue. Her vibrant colours introduce joy, energy and positivity — a reminder that balance doesn’t have to be silent or austere. It can be full of life.
Each sphere finds its place, one upon another, creating an inner architecture that feels both grounded and hopeful.
A reminder that elevation begins with grounding.
That balance is not about standing still, but about finding our centre.
And sometimes, we simply need to look up.
✨ L’été en équilibre continues at Subtile until 12 September.
The gallery will take a short summer break from 22 August to 7 September and will be closed during this period.
But our online gallery remains open.
You can now discover a selection of Monica Pascual Velasco’s unique pieces on our website. Perhaps one of these joyful totems will find its place in your home — and become part of your own landscape.
