The processes of scientific research are as imperfect as the human bodies that develop them, making them inevitably fragile and incomplete. When compared, side to side, the procedural steps of scientific experimentation to those of artistic production, we find an unexpected kinship: both begin with touch as well as error. This exhibition celebrates that overlap, proposing a form of protoscience developed over the past months by the artist Gabriel Ribeiro, who has been dedicating his practice into investigating the materiality of structural systems through phenomena such as failure, chance and the action of time.
