Natalia Mejía Murillo's 'Mistranslation' at Panorama, Venice

Colombian artist Natalia Mejía Murillo will showcase her exhibition 'Mistranslation' at Panorama in Venice, Italy, from June 18 to September 6, 2026. Curated by Matheew Carrillo, this exhibition stems from an EXCLAMA Proyectos residency, aiming to create a dialogue between contemporary Colombian art and the cultural landscape of Venice. Murillo's artistic approach emphasizes slow observation and incorporates elements from various geographies. The exhibition unfolds in three segments—Acumulación, Contención, and Traducción—offering critiques of anthropocentrism and reliance on energy. Featured materials include glass and wood, reflecting Venetian traditions. Key works comprise 'Acumulación. Attraverso una Llama,' 'Contención – Depósito 1,' 'Contención – Depósito 2,' and 'Traducción. Una Mastèa of Consequence,' with a sound and light intervention echoing the influences of Borges and Conway.
