This mid career survey represents twenty years of Maria José Arjona’s artistic exploration, who unfolds her body of work occupying the museum in its totality. Through objects, reactivations, photographies, drawings, writings, actions and sound pieces, she situates performance in an open place, where hybrids, outcomes and tensions merge under a poetical language.

Rather than follow a chronological presentation of works, the exhibition’s five chapters take on the image of the pendulum as a way to understand the cyclical nature of Arjona’s practice. Cast into motion, this gravitational pull returns the artist’s focus to a recurrent set of questions as she moves between diverse environments, mediums, and contexts: arriving each time at a different answer, or an alternative means of expression.
