Desgastar was an exhibition featuring Christian Hincapié and Angela Rosensweig curated by Michelle Delgado for High Tide Gallery in Philadelphia, PA. February 2 - March 2, 2019.
Christian Hincapié and Angela Rosensweig are two artists who reply to the secret messages whispered to them by things in the city. Their work is a collection of field notes that deciphers and dismantles their daily experience of urban living. Translating their peripheries, the artists present moments that recall a collective experience. Their work observes the present and commemorates the past. Their gaze is aware of the construction of power and privilege instilled in our everyday experience.

Sus miradas son consciente de la construcción del poder y del privilegio inculcado en nuestra experiencia cotidiana.
