de montañas submarinas el fuego hace islas [from the underwater mountains fire makes islands] by guest curator Yina Jiménez Suriel explores the concept of freedom through sensory experiences, alternate and altered realities, and interspecies relationships between humans and non-humans. Featuring 12 local and international artists and collectives, the exhibition unfolds over three rotations, each with overlapping and new artworks, asking the question: how does art affect our bodies and perception and contribute to and alter our future? Jiménez Suriel investigates the idea of freedom inspired by the tools and knowledge from communities that have desired liberation from the Western imagination.
A publication will be co-published with Sming Sming Books, with the support of The Center for Latin American Studies, University of California at Berkeley.
The exhibition is the outcome of an ongoing research project that Jiménez Suriel began in 2019 and follows its first iteration in partnership with Pivô, São Paulo (2021). It was supported by residencies at Pivô and KADIST San Francisco. In January 2024, the exhibition will travel to Delfina Foundation, London.
