Real Madrid

4.-11.06.16: Reality, Leave Me Alone – Real Madrid, organised by Mohamed Al-Musibli
 
Reality, leave me alone refers to a double layered experience, in which a tangible truth superimposes a narrative one. Transformation happens radically within the coats.
Like a letter from Hogwarts, the judgement of others is the desired key to the realm of adult life after the short hallway of puberty. While practicing to master the art of magic is hard to realize that a transformation is already there.
 
In pubertal time a door closed behind acts like a portal that leads to a moment of freedom where the public self sinks and the alias emerge. The exhibition space presents the safe room where the sorcerer’s apprentice sleeps and learns, trying to escape the space of the not-yet.
A house of sentimental changes induced by chemistry on one side, and alchemy on the other. Hormones potions, pop song acting as a magical formula.

Real Madrid is a two person collective founded in 2015 by Bianca Benenti Oriol and Marco Pezzotta. Their work is self-defined as the combative merchandise of a football team, or a corporation of tenderness that uses the exhibition format as strategy to switch from fair-play to foreplay.
