Las Lenguas is an exhibition about the potential languages of the body. It presents works that
explore the representation of the figure by way of its inaudible gestures of expression. This is
different from the soul inside of the eyes. It asks to observe the nuance of a lover, of a
stranger, the alienation of a foreign language, and the failures of both the voice and the body
to translate into distinguishable codes of associations. Las Lenguas are presences whose
capabilities figuratively translate through the mysterious shapes made by the body to reveal or
conceal in interior and exterior worlds in which it exists.
