Permitted Vulnerability is the first solo presentation in Spain by Georgian artist and curator Gvantsa Jishkariani.
The exhibition brings together works moving between textile, language, craft and appropriation. Starting from decorative tapestries and visual references linked to post-Soviet culture, Jishkariani tears, transforms and reconstructs materials, incorporating embroidered phrases that oscillate between protest, irony and emotional tension.
Her works engage with kitsch, popular taste and forms often considered marginal or excessive, transforming them into a language of resistance, humour and vulnerability. Through this process, the exhibition reflects on memory, shame, control and the contradictions embedded in social and political realities.
