In the summer of 2026, Colombian artist Delcy Morelos creates a new monumental installation for Bozar’s Horta Hall. For this piece, Morelos draws on South American ancestral building techniques and European vernacular architecture. Using local, bio-sourced materials such as earth, clay, and fibres, her sensory works highlight the fundamental role of indigenous knowledge in maintaining both an ecological and spiritual balance.
Delcy Morelos (1967, Colombia) is a leading contemporary artist whose practice has become rooted in Europe in recent years, with exhibitions in for example Germany (Hamburger Bahnhof, 2025), Spain (CAAC, 2024), Belgium (Museum Dhondt-Dhaenens, 2024) and her participation in the Venice Biennale, prompting extended periods of work on the continent for various projects. Since 2023, she has also been represented by the Marian Goodman Gallery in Paris with whom she collaborates closely through regular exhibitions in Europe.
