THE BEAUTY OF ERROR. THE EXHIBITION OF DAVID JARRIN (DAVARTIS)
+ARTE gallery inaugurated the exhibition Está bien no pensar en todas las cosas (It's okay not to think about all the things), by David Jarrin (Davartis). Curated by Santiago Ávila.
Está bien no pensar en todas las cosas dives into the terrain of error and failure, and uses uncertainty to question the effects of society on non-normative bodies. Through drawing, ceramics and weaving, David transforms personal experiences into pieces that flow, expand and twist perceptions of queer and sick bodies. His works show dream worlds, bodies and mountains, proposing new forms of resistance and valuing fragility as a vital part of existence in a society that is heading towards its own extinction.
