Los huecos del agua

by Omar Cruz García, Itzel Vargas Plata

About
Collective exhibition that comprises a series of objects that challenge the present with problems that have their genesis in the Conquest and in the processes of formation of the Mexican nation-state. The curatorial project takes as its guiding axis the "Think like an archipelago" of Édouard Glissant. An archipelago is a set of territories united by what separates them,. They subscribe, dialogue, friction and share, but retain their identity. The exhibition includes paintings, graffiti, installations, objects based on Western visual codes to subvert and make visible the tensions, coloniality and racism of our gaze. Their symbolic operations and positions go beyond replicating styles: they rebel against exoticism and challenge our condition of privilege over the original communities, they reveal themselves to the gaze enunciating the frictions with the Mexican State and the stories of dispossession.
