The willow sees the heron’s image upside down, an exhibition curated by Catalina Lozano at Tenerife Espacio de las Artes, explores how images of landscape have been constructed, both ideologically and technically. Through the notion of ruin, it seeks to critically reflect on a series of transactions, typical of the age of colonialism and capitalism, and their visible and invisible remains.’

Javier Montes’ Artforum review noted that ‘Lozano brings together works that propose active and combative rereading and re-appropriation. The aforementioned qualities are apparent in the attitude of the woman who dances defiantly before a postindustrial landscape in Michele Horrigan’s 2014 video What a Feeling!’
