Mecanica vegetal is an exhibition in a continuous process: the project is marked by different activations and is established in three places. The first part is in the parking lot of an old print shop in Tacubaya, Martires de la Conquista 20. Between organic industrial and futuristic archaeology, the exhibition proposes a walk in a cement forest. The roots of a garden with contradictory forms and a park of sculptures are transformed into a concrete aquarium, with screaming and emaciated colors, following in the footsteps of the automotive ghosts. Precarious ecology in the ruins of capitalism here and there grows a seed, a texture flows from the roof, and the materials interact in opaque darkness, until disappearance.
