Field Notes:

geometry as tenderness · abstraction as empathy · rhythm as care

Defining Moment:

Early 1950s — geometry as tenderness; order set the language

Loló Soldevilla

(

1901–1971

)

lo-lo sol-deh-vee-yah

Soldevilla built a world where geometry felt intimate.

Her reliefs and collages softened abstraction through color and rhythm — hard edges tempered by harmony.

‍

In her world, clarity was empathy and order became warmth.

Structural Focus

Rule-Based Freedom

Constraints or systems generate variation. Freedom arises through adherence to rules rather than expressive choice.

In Loló Soldevilla’s work, this approach appears where modular repetition structures abstraction.

Chromatic Fields

Color fields operate as spatial and structural organizers.

Systems of Clarity

Order and coherence arise through disciplined systems and constraints.

Proportion organizes coherence through measured intervals, scale, and relation.

Structure holds the work through rules, joins, and controlled relationships between parts.

Form operates as a site for material, perceptual, and conceptual inquiry.

Form is constructed through measurable, non-representational means.

Constructed form prioritizes system, function, and collective use.

Structual Relations

The following practices are connected through shared structural decisions in form, material, and spatial logic.

Precision as calm

Tension as body

In Dialogue

Movement as order

Color as virtue
