Experience 'Carrusel': A Collaborative Exhibition by Fuentesal Arenillas and Itziar Okariz

This exhibition presents 'Carrusel,' a collaboration between artists Fuentesal Arenillas and Itziar Okariz, exploring the intersection of their sculptural and performative practices. The work translates material-words into repeating figures and forms, creating a circular dialogue between the artists and their audience.

Fuentesal Arenillas e Itziar Okariz present 'Carrusel,' an exhibition conceived for the Sala de Bóvedas, where their sculptural and performative artistic practices converge. Viewing conversation as an artifact, the artists engage in a process of correspondence, translating "material-words" into new figures that repeat and change forms, extended through various elements such as a cane. They establish a continuous, circular encounter, intertwining elements like necks with waists and wrists with feet, exploring the real and the possible in communication. The exhibition resists distance and the gaps in language, manifesting in forms like a "letter-pants" or "letter-skirt," which foster a chain of actions where improvisation leads to unexpected discoveries and new modes of manifestation, always referencing previous forms. 'Carrusel' aligns with Condeduque's season theme, encouraging the experience of worlds not just through sight but through the activation of bodies using various resources and inventions. The exhibition is accompanied by a publication featuring a main text by invited curator Francisco Ramallo, who proposes an open dialogue. The artistic practice of Julia Fuentesal and Pablo M. Arenillas (Huelva, 1986 - Cádiz, 1989) centers on exploring relationships and states, with notable past exhibitions and accolades including residencies and awards. Itziar Okariz (San Sebastián, 1965) works with action and performance, questioning language regulation and sign production, often engaging with feminist practices and queer theory, and focusing on transmission and art pedagogies. The exhibition is curated by Marta Ramos-Yzquierdo, with Francisco Ramallo as guest curator.
