'A Corner in Wheat' proposes a dialogue between Beatriz Olabarrieta (Bilbao, Spain, 1979; lives between Berlin and Barcelona) and Mario Santamaría (Burgos, 1985; lives in Barcelona) based on different interventions in the space, taking its singular architecture and traces such as the old walls, the marks on the floor of a mezzanine that is no longer there, perforations from past exhibitions, etc. Their proposal proposes cuts and displacements of elements, whose recompositions and material traces generate moments of bewilderment in the space. These operations delve into a logic of disarticulation and rearticulation under a new form, inviting us to think about how they affect the bodies that inhabit these spaces.
