Paisajes, (Landscapes). 2009

“Todos Somos Magicos”. First exhibited in galleria de La Oficina.

Medellin. Col.

“The geography of the Mágico, is more a haziness that is defined as a space of scarce visibility between the beginning point and the “crowning” goal, as an inter – space between blurred and elusive cartographies, of undefined and constantly changing routes, of topographies of summits in permanent ascent and accumulation.  In this haziness appears to inhabit a virus that destabilizes and decomposes the dominant bonds of the terms and the stories, m-a-c-r-o – c-o-s-m-i-c, s-i-m-u-l-a-t-e-d – a-p-p-e-a-r-a-n-c-e or e-f-f-i-c-i-e-n-c-y, are nothing but the first anagrams that arise from this anomalous operation, that profess the mobilization of sense toward the Mágico.  In the space of these works, words, and myths, sketches and figures, codes and collective images are washed”. Works that are part of the show “Todos Somos Magicos”. First exhibited in galleria de La Oficina. Medellin. Col

 

*Mágico: A popular term originating in the city of Medellín, Colombia, to describe a drug dealer.
