The SINS AND CAPITALS, or a certain mist for empty spaces curatorial program, is made up of six exhibitions in international spaces, a site specific exhibition + film screenings in a national space and an editorial project. Based on the work of Caspar David Friedrich — Der Wanderer über dem Nebelmeer — and the premise that space is freedom, critical approaches are called for between the space we inhabit and the exhibition space. Considering the multiplicity of meanings that we can find in the concepts of "space", "mist" and "capital", the project enunciates some philosophical, ethical and political implications that articulate ecology, economy and artistic practice. In this project, physical space is assumed as a determining and operative conceptual tool for the visual and sonic materialization of the works. The in situ proposals, therefore different in each of the six international exhibition spaces, affirm the work and the space as elements that construct each other.
