📖 The exhibition

Internationally recognised for her expansive practice, Grosse has redefined the field of painting for over three decades, taking it beyond the canvas into direct engagement with architecture, landscape and public space. She conceives the world as a space for painting: in «Arrels» she transforms La Llotja into an active field of experience, using colour as a force to unify disparate elements and generate multisensory immersion.

Grosse draws no distinction between painting, sculpture and architecture, nor between interior and exterior, viewer and participant. This intervention marks a particularly significant moment in her career: the site itself becomes a subject, responding to La Llotja's historical dimension as one of Palma's most iconic heritage spaces.
