+ INFOHelen Escobedo’s Ambientes totales Exhibit @ Laboratorio de Arte Alameda
The exhibition reviews the work of iconic architect and sculptor Escobedo (Mexico City, 1934-2010) as an installation artist, a practice she pioneered in Mexico and which she used to question the traditional flow of perception between the artist, the work, and the viewer through her conception of art as a “total environment".

REVERSŌ V. II @ Casa del Lago UNAM
REVERSŌ is an object-based installation that explores the poetics of space through a threshold of light; an immersive experience composed of a geometric landscape, which in its interaction seeks a sensory response from the observer. It is presented by the Chilean duo Nøctuary together with the collaboration Caco Marshall, in terms of sound.
