HISMOSA
\n Curated by Aleo Land
eta
In the tradition of chisme as lore\, Machismosa examines how machismo is learned\, whis pered\, and passed down. This exhibition dismantle s it through the same radical storytelling that bu ilt it\, bringing together ten Latine artists whos e multimedia practices unravel machismo's rigidity and reimagine it as fluid\, intimate\, and commun al. Rather than treating machismo as an inescapabl e mold\, these artists deconstruct and reclaim it into something livable. Working across textile\, c eramics\, painting\, and sculpture\, they center t he body\, domesticity\, and ancestral memory as si tes of resistance\, where kitchen-table whispers b ecome revolution. The opening reception will be an imated by live performances from drag royalty Soy Papi Churo and Xochitl\, bringing Machismosa's the mes off the walls and into the room.
