Juniin x De: Formal

Juniin is a gallery space in Guayaquil’s downtown art circle. Founded by Libbi Ponce,
it seeks to offer an international platform for local emerging artists and collaborators working in
new media art and 𝑜𝓉𝒽𝑒𝓇 forms of production. 


De:Formal is an artists-run online platform dedicated to promoting critical conversations in contemporary art. We present emerging artists who work with video, performance, installation, sculpture, media art and other forms under-recognized in the conventional gallery system. We conduct artist interviews, curate online and offline exhibitions, and host monthly virtual residencies


" The Rise of the Care Machines" is traveling to Guayaquil, Ecuador !


The artists involved in this exhibition do not reproduce the discourses and practices in which motherhood has been traditionally identified for centuries, but have appropriated this experience to the point of resignifying it from their experience, and from what each one is and has allowed feeling free.


Through video, 3D sculpture, animation film, AR filter, and gif, a diverse group of artists explore the representations of the feminine in technology, the cycle of life and death, the subjects of social reproduction, and the care crisis.


The Rise of the Care Machines is dedicated to the new media artists who are mothers.
