Kimia Kamvari's 'Anverso y reverso' at Fundación Cerezales delves into medieval archives and territorial logic.

exhibition · 2026-04-13

The exhibition 'Anverso y reverso' by Kimia Kamvari, curated by Alfredo Puente, is hosted at Fundación Cerezales Antonino y Cinia from March 22 to June 14, 2026. This showcase includes a spatial intervention that integrates photography, objects, sound, and archival materials, delving into how the world is described and managed through various systems of registration and representation. Kamvari's work draws inspiration from the ancient Persian cosmogony of Gâv-Zamin, which represents equilibrium between species and their environments. A significant focus is the Nodicia de kesos from the Archivo de la Catedral de León, which addresses themes of property and consumption. The exhibition also explores bustrophedon writing and Galalith, while incorporating leather elements, all structured around a low G note from the Klais Orgelbau organ, generating a rich tapestry of images, sounds, and objects.
