Sodi has described his creative process as controlled chaos that
makes something completely unrepeatable and unique. In his most
celebrated body of work, the artist mixes raw pigment with sawdust,
wood, pulp, and natural fibers to create the dense surfaces of
monochrome paintings. As the layers of material dry, fissured
landscapes form without the guidance or intervention of the artist.
Sodi's sculptural process reflects traditions of his Mexican
heritage. At his studio, Casa Wabi, in Oaxaca, he uses raw earth
clay to create kiln-fired cubes, spheres, and bricks. Stacked into
columns as minimalist sculpture or assembled as a field or wall,
these projects range in scale from architectural installations to
earthworks. Sodi also collects solidified volcanic magma from the
Ceboruco volcano to make rock sculptures. These fragments are
coated in a ceramic glaze and precious metals, uniting geological
processes with art-making techniques. This book reflects Sodi's
distinct material processes, with essays detailing his relationship
to Oaxacan and wabi-sabi aesthetics, as well as his engagement with
artistic traditions ranging from minimalism to arte povera to land
art.
