2-TIMES  Art
Martin Soto Climent,
Under the immortal
skin
’ @ T293
— 

Lost in a jungle of
textures and fabrics
designed for clothes,
such as leggings,
bikinis or bras that,
because of their
adherence, are full
of human substance
and represent a sort
of second skin...
 

The exhibition: 
Marks the Mexican-
born conceptual artist's
10th anniversary with
T293, featuring a body
of collage-like canvasses
& sculptures, carefully
binding found objects
and materials that are 
contorted & stretched,
fragile and frangible—
just like the human
being who wears them. 

This new series
is something that
condensates all my
practice while this
sort of 'studio' I left
at the gallery for the
whole duration of the
exhibit is something
that is always going
on when I work,
everywhere, and it's
the first time I exhibit
this intimate part of
my work that usually
the viewer doesn't
get the chance to see
 
— 
The emotions that
some of these little
objects can detonate
are equal to those
aroused by the big 
ones.”
