The grand opening event kicks off a months-long exhibition\, and includes special activations designed to reinforce Alvaro’s artistic thesis: difficulties can have unlimited potential as well – demonstrating how creativity can flourish even in adversity\, motivating viewers to imagine new possibilities. \nWith this exhibition\, Alvaro invites us to rethink abandonment: what have we left behind?

AbandonmenTissues responds enthusiastically with a clear proposal: challenges are also raw goods for rebuilding.
