HARRY CHÁVEZ: DONDE MUERDE EL MITO

Harry Chávez: Donde muerde el mito was the first presentation of Peruvian artist Harry Chávez's work at the Museo de Arte de Lima (MALI), held as part of the MALI Colecciones. Intervenciones contemporáneas program. The exhibition recently won the Premio Luces 2026 from El Comercio in the best exhibition category, a public-vote award reflecting its impact. The show explores symbolic conflicts between serpent and feline in Andean and Amazonian mythology, featuring works like 'Salto mortal' and 'Nacimiento del dragón' that depict cosmic struggles and hybrid transformations.
