Las Tres Granadas Napkins

‘Las tres granadas’, 2025, translates to ‘The three pomegranates’ and is part of an ongoing series of still lives depicting luscious arrangements of fruits, flowers and foliage. These paintings sit within a wider practice in which Sol Calero utilises installation, architecture, furniture and mosaic to engage with visual stereotypes, examining cultural representation and the notion of the ‘exotic’. Such themes are evident in this vibrant napkin set, which feature an expressive detail from the painting of a pomegranate, a lemon and a flower bordered by the decorative geometric motifs Calero paints along the sides of her canvases. More than home decor, it’s an exploration of hospitality, identity and the layered stories we tell through our domestic spaces.
