Immerse yourself in a unique experience that transcends the traditional gaze of art. The multisensory tour of the exhibition 'Katabasis' by artist Mauricio Carmona Rivera, winner of the XII Luis Caballero Prize, invites you to explore the underground rivers flowing beneath Bogotá and Medellín through an audiovisual urban archaeology. This innovative proposal reveals the environmental and historical layers hidden under the city, bringing to the surface images of the 'underside' of the city and activating a critical reflection on urban transformations, water memory, and the imaginaries of the underground.
During the tour, you will experience the exhibition from a multisensory perspective, designed to recognize the diversity of bodies, sensitivities, and ways of inhabiting space. The guided visit includes tactile, sound, and visual stimuli that enrich the understanding of the work and deeply connect you with the concept of 'Katabasis', a journey to the symbolic underworld of the city.
We recommend wearing comfortable clothes and being open to exploration. The tour takes place at Galería Santa Fe, a cultural landmark in downtown Bogotá. The approximate duration is 60 minutes. Don't forget to bring your curiosity and desire to discover a new way of appreciating contemporary art.
Galería Santa Fe, operated by the District Institute of Arts (Idartes), is a benchmark in promoting Colombian artists and artistic experimentation. This tour is part of the commemoration of Bogotá's birthday, offering an inclusive and transformative activity for all audiences.
