Genealogies of the territory It is an exhibition composed of the work of 60 artists who saw their studios affected by the October flood 2024 and that values its creations in a reflection on the territory, making visible the artistic wealth of the Valencian cultural fabric. It is articulated as a route that crosses a landscape in transformation. The exhibition presents an emotional and physical itinerary that takes us from the depths of the earth, the sea, the elements and nature that sometimes reveals itself and turns into a nightmare, to more poetic or aesthetic concepts, passing through the landscape, domesticated nature and finally hope, beauty as a form of healing.
