This exhibition brings together female artists from the PAMM collection who use photography and printmaking to reflect on the subtle imprints left by memory and life experiences. The exhibition title hints at the duality of these works: on the one hand, the shadows captured by the lens are like echoes; on the other hand, the prints concretize these material imprints.

A World Far Away, Nearby and Invisibleinvites viewers on a journey through selected works from the Jorge M. Pérez Collection that explore and reimagine the complex, multifaceted idea of territory. The exhibition moves from a conception of territory as layered, tangible ground to one rooted in primordial, earthbound forces—celebrating it as a space where the symbolic and the dreamlike converge. Organized into four chapters, the exhibition weaves together narratives that portray territory as a shared space of affection, magic, and community, where legends and myths meet. These stories form a tapestry of metaphors that, in the words of Mazatec shaman María Sabina, evoke a world that is far away, nearby, and invisible all at once. The works on view at El Espacio 23 suggest territory as a vital force: a living, shifting organism, a refuge, a site of purification, and a space for meaning. In contrast, the landscape emerges as a cultural construct: a subjective gaze that, through aestheticization, fragments and categorizes territory in order to name it. Curated by Claudia Segura Campins in dialogue with curators of the Pérez Collection, Patricia M. Hanna and Anelys Alvarez, A World Far Away, Nearby, and Invisible becomes a dialogue between physical substance and symbolic resonance. Within this conceptual frame, territory is rendered in sharp, unembellished clarity, revealing its political, performative, and transformative dimensions.

The exhibition "Participation: Sport, Art, and Culture" explores the dynamic interaction between athletic competition and artistic expression. Coinciding with Miami hosting several major international sporting events—the Miami Open, the Formula One Grand Prix, and the FIFA World Cup—the exhibition transforms the Perez Museum of Art (PAMM) into a venue for a global audience to reflect on the impact of sport culture. In this city characterized by exchange and diversity, the exhibition emphasizes how competition and rivalry transcend tradition, identity, and contestation to create a shared platform.

Cecilia Vicuña is a poet and artist who grew up in the Chilean commune of La Florida, in the Maipo Valley. Born to a family of artists and intellectuals, Vicuña grew up hearing about the persecution and incarceration of individuals who struggled for social justice in the wake of increasingly conservative government agendas. While attending the Slade School of Fine Art in London on a British Council Award in 1972–73, a coup d’état led by General Augusto Pinochet, commander-in-chief of the Chilean army, ushered in a seventeen-year military dictatorship. This led Vicuña to remain in London on a self-imposed exile, where she exhibited her work at the Institute of Contemporary Arts and published her first book, Saborami (1973). At the time, she was largely focused on political activism directed against fascism and human rights violations in Chile and other countries.
