Jorge Macchi on “Parallel Lives”
Jorge Macchi talks about his work, “Vidas Paralelas (Parallel Lives),” and his multidimensional art practice that challenges the seemingly predictable parts of everyday life. Macchi utilizes a wide range of mediums, from sculpture and painting to installation and video, and conceptual and performance work. Macchi’s works are full of “errors.” By placing objects outside their everyday contexts, he jokes with us, highlights the ignored, and escapes logic. His work is work featured in the exhibition “The Double.”

Las obras de Macchi’s están llenas de “errores.” Colocando los objetos fuera de sus contextos cotidianos, el artista bromea con nosotros, resalta lo ignorado, y escapa de la lógica. Su obra aparece en la exhibición “The Double.”
