Superimposed Readings suggests different interpretations of the shows Southern Panoramas and 30 years, from the superimposition of curatorial gestures to the activating actions proposed by guests. New concepts, other bodies join the routes at the exhibition venues, pointing towards the disintegration of the shows' original narratives, and suggesting expanded contours to the exhibits.

Público is an essay that plans to dislocate the perception of time and space, through the perspective of the audience with regard to exhibition Southern Panorama. The venue of the fair will be transformed through occupation by hired performers. The group should try to choreograph the different levels and processes of “reception”,  a complex operation as it is completely altered according to the audience’s individual capacity for interpretation of the works. Performers, at five different moments, will intercept cognition. The works will continue playing the part of issuers, and provocation of the public will be through these activators, which represent the moment at which the visitor and the works undergo an intense flow of signifiers.
