The cyclic movements of ¿ ; { ^ ) produce sounds that are sometimes familiar and sometimes unrecognizable. On the other hand, in their drifts, these sounds can be taken simultaneously as music, as noise or, also, as the strange voices of an unknown language 

(how are the punctuation marks of the title of the exhibition pronounced?).

Álvaro Icaza and Verónica Luyo propose ¿ ; { ^ ) as a space that precipitates us to the work of interpretation, but also reminds us that in every encounter with a work of art we face a core of uncertainty. This is the sense of the radically experiential bet proposed by the artists, where the idea of establishing a dialogue with the works requires first listening attentively, as one who assumes that there is not always a message to be deciphered.
