Description

Raya (from Soraya) is a monolithic porcelain sculpture that embodies the essence of femininity, strength, and grounded presence — both the Holding and the Held, a celebration of sisterhood. Hand-sculpted for the exhibition F is for Fem, its organic, curvaceous form evokes multiple readings: a seated figure, a rooted presence, or a vessel for growth and reflection.

The hollow interior adds resonance, inviting contemplation of space, form, and the quiet power of being held and holding. Raya celebrates the poetic interplay between material, body, and identity, honoring imperfection and the tactile beauty of porcelain.

Her practice incorporates contemporary ceramic sculpture and clay 3D printing, alongside filmmaking, painting, and printmaking. Embedded with duality, Lili's works invite an exploration of identity, intersectional feminism, and the reclamation of her culture.Over the past 15 years, she has coordinated and curated group exhibitions, and exhibited internationally at notable galleries and museums, including Museo d'Historia de Barcelona, Arts Santa Monica, Contemporary Calgary, the Museum of Contemporary Art Calgary, Center for Contemporary Printmaking, and Caroun Gallery, among others.
