Summary:

Ulises Mazzucca (Santa Fe, 1997) has, in recent years, built a universe in graphite, a black-and-white world populated by young people enjoying and suffering a context as pleasant as it is aggressive. With their narrative bent, his works comprise small texts, imaginary or biographical legends, charting what the artist calls an emotional cartographyœ: the gathering and analysis of the affections and afflictions that go to make up our sentimental education. Gimnasia espiritual [Spiritual Gymnastics], his first exhibition in a museum, brings together two series made in the past year. In one series, the dances and positions of the characters are reminiscent of instruction in ascetic or yogic practices. The bruised and banged-up skins of the characters and the appearance of ghostly figures recall religious art, revealing a desire for atonement, but above all, demonstrating how our sensible history resurfaces in the form of wounds.
