Space as Dyonisian Machine - By Carmen Hernández, Curator of the exhibition
(Curator) Short comment on "Continuo Habitable"
Continuo Habitable, a solo exhibition by Jesús Moreno (Caracas, 1981), brings together a series of installations, paintings, and assemblages that explore a strong connection between space and artwork. The exhibition is based on the relationship between object, subject, and environment, where the individual appears enveloped in a dizzying interplay of events, images, transparencies, and reflections. In this sense, the show outlines different thresholds of transition between inside and outside, involving perceptions and experiences related to urban culture, where each piece functions as a container and a device for spatial activation, becoming a site of intersection. There, the coordinates constantly shift, causing the intimate and the public to overlap. Likewise, Moreno's work manifests a certain interplay between the mechanical (mechanisms, screws, pulleys) and the organic (plant structures, bodily fragments) that alludes to hybrid forms of life.
