‘Ugly Enemies’
Ugly Enemies is a specific intervention in Cibrián that uses the gallery's functional elements such as the elevator, stairs, display case, or tiles, as agents that actively participate in the tour through the room. This exhibition builds a place that is almost a new skin over the gallery space, in which the works inhabit and by which they are modified. The transformations on the space give off a kind of erratic vitality, to the point that the exhibition has functioned as a set for the editing of a video titled El Que Monta Cargas that you can see at this link. This video uses a current condition of art, whereby most exhibitions are seen online, and takes it further: the exhibition is deformed, looked at, and reorganized by lights or sections of material, in order to pour Ugly Enemies onto the screen and tell a story in which what acts is the place.
