Sediments: An assemblage of remains
South Outdoors is a curatorial program of young artists, the starting point of which is the idea of the interstice as a fissure that mediates between two parts of a single body. It operates out of the possibility of linking the inside and outside of the museum, and thereby considers artistic interventions to happen on terraces, patios, and hallways.
The cycle integrates four young artists—from Mexico and abroad—who generate a reflection on the edges of the visual, under the dialectical anchor between the visible and the invisible in museum space. They start off from an open question, which serves as a trigger for the projects to be carried out: how, in contemporary art practice, is it possible that this bordering, residual condition take place? With this initiative, the MUAC and Museo Amparo seek to generate a politics of visibility and inclusion of emergent cultural production, with the aim of positing new flows of exchange between local and external scenes.
