An exhibition by artist Camilo Restrepo with work produced ex-profeso during his residency at the fundación/op.cit. in Mexico City. The work was originally made directly on walls, whose pictorial layer was later removed from the site where it was conceived through a specialized restoration technique, to be shown now as a transportable mural. The work is a multidimensional set of narrative plots, woven between the culture wars of contemporary art, popular culture, viral appropriations of media iconographies, vernacular humor and Colombian and international politics.

The structural video work Spring Water, Fault, Body (湧き⽔と断層と身体) (2021) is a performance piece. (...) the artist's voice reading aloud the memories of her father –a scientist involved in the field of nuclear power engineering.– narrated through the actions of the artist, who became a mother during it's creation (...) This reading aloud is a performance act that imagines new subjects, including non-human, to transcend the concept of the "individual" brought about by modernity.
