“a call to the ocean” (2025) is part of the exhibition “otras montañas, las que andan sueltas bajo el agua” [other mountains, adrift beneath the waves] curated by Yina Jiménez Suriel at Ocean Space, Venice. Commissioned by TBA21–Academy. The show is a dialogue between the works of Nadia Huggins and Tessa Mars.

“Mars proposes that the mountains above sea level serve as guides in our journey toward submerged mountains. Endowed with our planet’s timeless wisdom, these mountains, adrift beneath the waves, remind us that they have not only harbored and catalyzed the possibility of other worlds, but may also provide the conditions for the materialization of alternative horizons yet to be seen.”
