_"The moulting of the arthropod, in its biological sense, is a periodic process by which the animal sheds its skin and experiences rapid growth."

_The skin is not immune but sensitive and alive. It breathes, metabolizes, and regenerates with its own strength. It adapts. It grows. Its change is inevitable, occurring with neither our permission nor our initiative.

_In this exhibition, the skin works as a metaphor, creating a narrative thread that runs between all of the works. The skin is the organ by which living beings are exposed to the world. It is a border that recognizes its own limits, the layer that both isolates and protects us. At the same time, it is an element that invites flexibility, growth, and transmutation. The skin is also a pathway for the sense of touch and a guide in our experience of the material matter of the world.

_The exhibition features artists from distinct artistic practices and disciplines who experiment with the matter by transforming it and creating new layers of meaning. In their works, they explore the vulnerability of human existence, both on a personal level, and in the context of contemporary societies. The pieces reflect on the idea of transformation, uncertainty, the skin as a border, and the different ways of inhabiting a new space, whether geographical or emotional.

_In MUDA-R the artists develop a hybrid space where the sharp edges between one individual and the next dissolve. They offer a curation of that place where all proposals interconnect, mix, impact, alter and complement one another to promote a collaborative vision. The pieces are presented as acts of connection, threads that emerge and weave new relationships
