///////////////////////////////////////

Temporality was explored as something internal and latent in the life of art. This exhibition had the intention to shape time as biological processes in the physical bodies of artworks. It included a selection of pieces that varied from painting to installation, sculpture to performance, photography to video, conceived as anatomical structures and substances of time. It addressed ideas about processes of displacement and settlement, the voyage, the regeneration and transformation of the messages that art contains and transmits to us. It invited viewers to look into the transient and discontinuous, the different shapes of migratory processes in nature and art. It also encouraged viewers to listen to the messages that persist and perish, survive and are lost, evolve and extinguish in the living bodies of art.
