MEMORIA presents Capsules, a series of critical projects, in a digital format, that aim to amplify perceptions and create intersections among artworks by the different represented artists in the gallery.

For its first edition, MEMORIA proposes to delve into essays on intimacy, shedding light onto the ability of artists to open spaces towards what is private, from an organic perspective, making it also universal and relatable.

These gestures access the field of an essential narrative upon their subjects, constructing both a particular gaze over their lives and personalities, and also an universal outlook on everything we can identify with and relate to from the utmost human condition we share. The tension between private and public, or concealed and visible, create in the audience some sort of correspondence in otherness, but also reveal the mechanisms through wich artists build alternative world views and transport us to them, ultimately subverting the apparently strict notions of how we understand our surroundings.

In “Capsule 1: essays on intimacy”, MEMORIA includes artworks by five renowned Latin American female artists: Yolanda Andrade (Villahermosa, Mexico, 1950), Paz Errázuriz (Santiago, Chile, 1944), Terry Holiday (Mexico City, 1955), Graciela Iturbide (Mexico City, 1942) and Maya Goded (Mexico City, 1967).
