Dec. 11-28, 2026 Reception: Dec. 11th, 7-10pm Benjamin Franklin 151-A, Condesa, CDMX“The Algorithm Is Not Your Friend” is an exhibition that explores the contemporary individual’s relationship with their digital algorithm. It raises questions about whether the algorithm is the means, the end, or the starting point of the equation.Through glitch-inspired textures and broken screen aesthetics, the series presents textile collages housed within lightboxes—objects that resemble screens themselves. However, it is the painterly gestures that hold the content in a state of stillness, creating a visual pause amidst the constant image flow to which our phones subject us.This aesthetic experience evokes the luminosity of the digital realm, while simultaneously inviting the viewer to engage with a tactile, textured painting—one that demands physical presence and observation, rich in nuance and materiality. ---------------------------------------------------------“El algoritmo no es tu amigo” es una exposición que explora la relación del individuo contemporáneo con su algoritmo digital. Plantea interrogantes sobre si el algoritmo es el medio, el fin o el punto de partida de la ecuación.A través de texturas inspiradas en el glitch y estéticas de pantallas rotas, la serie presenta collages textiles contenidos en cajas de luz, objetos que remiten visualmente a una pantalla. No obstante, son los gestos pictóricos los que suspenden el contenido en una quietud visual, generando una pausa dentro del incesante flujo de imágenes al que nos someten los dispositivos móviles.La propuesta estética evoca la luminosidad del entorno digital, pero al mismo tiempo invita a una experiencia contemplativa con pinturas ricas en texturas y matices, que exige la presencia física y la observación atenta del espectador. ---------------------------- Join us also, for a Live Auction of some of Michel's work, along with 20 other artists. December 16th, 7pm
