Onomatopoeias (el suplicio de las moscas)

Exhibition, Biennial of Mislata BMMN 2025, Carmen Alborch Cultural Center. Starting December 12, 2025. “True power is not exercised with shouts or whips, but in subtle details, in acts that seem insignificant but which nullify other beings with impunity.” https://valenciaplaza.com/arte-museos-fotografia-valencia-comunitat-valenciana/la-biennal-de-mislata-miquel-navarro-2025-inaugura-pasados-activoscon-las-10-obras-finalistas   Onomatopoeias (The Torment of the Flies) Onomatopoeias (The Torment of the Flies) is an artistic exploration focused on the rescue and re-signification of obsolete processes and forms, decontextualized from their original function, as a strategy of symbolic resistance against urban and institutional violence.

"Lo que resuena desde abajo", 12 de septiembre 2026                                       Inspirado en la historia concreta del edificio —antiguo telégrafo—, la exposición se adentrará en una reflexión sobre los oficios, herramientas y lenguajes que han quedado suspendidos entre la memoria y la desaparición. El proyecto continúa la investigación en torno a los procesos de reactivación, reparación y resignificación de saberes y materiales en desuso, entendiendo la práctica artística como una forma de traducción y de escucha de los ecos del pasado. March 9, 2026 "What Resonates from Below," September 12, 2026 Inspired by the building's specific history—a former telegraph office—the exhibition will delve into a reflection on the trades, tools, and languages ​​that have been suspended between memory and disappearance. The project continues the research into the processes of reactivation, repair, a...
