No Me Pongas Los Cuernos
Group show at La Casa Encendida, Madrid 12.07.2012-13.07.2012
Work exhibited: Naked, (2009), Panda sculpture.
NO ME PONGAS LOS CUERNOS—literally, don’t put the horns on me—is an expression that means absolutely nothing when taken out of context and culture. Comprehension is not just a matter of reflecting, of using propositions, but a way of experiencing and understanding a comprehensible reality. Every cultural tradition, our ties to a linguistic community, our aesthetic sensibilities and our reaction to perceptive stimuli are totally conditioned by our western context of meaning.
