A short synopsis
The title of the exhibition is a fragment of a poem by Cecilia Vicuña, a well-known Chilean artist based in New York, who talks about two indigenous women, artists, who work together in a large vase without seeing each other, and when they turn around they see that the Patterns that have drawn match. This story has served as inspiration to develop an animation in which two girls move and dance in a spiral while drawing geometric patterns with their bodies.

The idea of a transition between interior and exterior, and the relationship between the centre and the periphery articulates the animation and exhibition from what it was presented, bringing together a group of new works that the artist made during her four months residency at the International Studio and Curatorial Program (ISCP), in Brooklyn, NY.
