Casa Miraflores presents the RADAR section titled "Porous Systems" at Pinta Lima 2026, curated by Ilaria Conti. The section features Guatemalan center La Galería Rebelde and artist Angélica Serech, whose textile works draw from Maya Kaqchikel knowledge, alongside artists Diana Eusebio, Luciano Giménez, Alberto Casari, and Carlos Luis "Pajita" García Bes. The exhibition explores permeability, process, and the meeting of inherited knowledge with contemporary languages.
This edition of Pinta Lima matters because it foregrounds Central American contemporary art within a major Latin American art fair, challenging peripheral narratives. Serech's work, which merges textile tradition, formal experimentation, and community memory, exemplifies how regional artistic practices can reshape broader debates in contemporary art. The focus on porous systems and shared sensibility across diverse languages signals a curatorial shift toward process-oriented, materially engaged art.
