SCRATCH is the second encounter of Camila Bardehle, Carolina Colichio,
Karla Leyva, and Margot Kalach, now presented at CROMA in Mexico City
under the curatorship of Polina Stroganova.
The exhibition explores the tactile—skin, surface, and wear—as a threshold between protection and erosion, through video, painting, installation, sculpture, performance, and site-specific interventions.
This new iteration gravitates around the tactile: the tension between caress and scratch, protection and erosion, the fragile surface that shelters and simultaneously cracks open. Across video, painting, installation, drawing, site-specific interventions, sculpture and performance, the artists explore skin and surface as threshold and membrane—what guards, what peels, what accumulates debris, and what transforms it into new forms of life. Their works move between the intimate and the abstract, giving material presence to gestures that oscillate between tenderness and abrasion, between the impulse to preserve and the inevitability of decay.
