LA LÍNEA SUCIA

---

The exhibition proposes an approach to the work of Rosemberg Sandoval through three thematic sections which, without following a chronological reading or a uniform classification, allow for an understanding of the central concerns and processes that inform his practice. The first brings together works related to Indigenous peoples, animals, and territory. In the second, drawing becomes an act of force for Sandoval: a visceral line that cuts through the surface and moves beyond representation, a physical gesture that erupts. In the third, the house becomes a second skin: a territory that preserves traces of the affections, violence, and everyday life of those who inhabited it.

The exhibition moves from the relationships between bodies and territories to the daily discipline of drawing, culminating in the material traces of inhabitation. Rather than illustrating a single narrative, the exhibition spaces establish correspondences between experience, action, and memory—dimensions that run throughout the artist’s work.

“Paper, transformed into a laboratory for experimentation, where magical and profound episodes of my life unfold, turns this exhibition into an intimate and fierce document, realized through multiple formats and ancestral and contemporary resources encountered throughout my research as an artist. This research takes place in a country that has been subdued, elemental, and evangelized through massacres and widespread violence, yet possesses a grand and hallucinatory pre-Columbian past, sustained today with resistance and dignity by 115 Indigenous communities.”
