Description
What do we risk by coming closer?
A solo exhibition by Emilia González Salgado
Curated by Gabriela Román González
Join us for the opening night of What do we risk by coming closer? and experience an evening that moves between gesture, scent and reflection, an invitation to stay within the nearness of things before language defines them.
To come closer is never a neutral act.
Getting close changes how we see and understand. It dissolves the safe distance that lets us remain observers and turns us into participants in what we are looking at. It exposes us to exchange, to the complexity of looking closely at others and at the worlds they carry, without claiming to fully know them.
Through scent, clay, vapour and memory, Emilia González Salgado assembles a series of works that turn proximity into method, insisting that attention itself can be a form of contact.
This exhibition is on at Brixton House from Friday 21 November to Friday 5 December. Drop-in anytime during Brixton House opening hours.
