red red réseaux

Curator : María Andreína Escalona De Abreu

Artists : Pilar Escobar, Coletiva Tribu, Helena Martin Franco and Sarabeth Triviño.

red red réseaux is an exhibition created by and for people at the intersection of art and activism, immigrants, and women’s bodies in public spaces. The exhibition is designed as a physical and conceptual labyrinth that embodies the issues surrounding these positions and invites the public to explore them further. This installation materializes a sharing network that has existed for several years among women artists from the Latin American diaspora living in Montreal. They call themselves Brujas. red red réseaux therefore offers a performative platform where las Brujas can intervene and activate the gallery space through gestures, actions, and material traces. The labyrinth occupies the entire gallery, connecting all the spaces with a common thread in the form of a net or spider web that will be constructed in situ. A clever play on words, the title of the exhibition is trilingual: red means both network in Spanish and red in English, revealing the subject and installation of the exhibition.
