Silver Time, Lead Tongue

CATALOGUE
“I know that you are only a stone and can neither do harm nor bring benefit.”
Words spoken by Muhammad after kissing the Black Stone in Mecca
Silver Time, Lead Tongue is a project with multiple comings and goings of connections and meanings between architecture, the object, the body and materials. Its structural backbone is the observation of stones, specifically bezoars, and their associated imagery as elements capable of triggering convictions and beliefs. All this is passed through the filter of a denaturalised or abnormal creative temporality situated in two key realities: the interior and the exterior of the body. A journey through past truths and present certainties.
The catalog that accompanies the exhibition contains the texts critic and curator of Juan Francisco Rueda and will be available throughout the month of May. In addition, this project is tutored by José Manuel Ruiz Bermúdez.
