DICHA-DESDICHA

Felipe Garavito Muñoz explores the emotional and conceptual tensions that arise in moments of transformation. His work DICHA-DESDICHA investigates the illusion of the present and the complex interplay between opposing forces, clarity and confusion, choice and obligation, light and shadow.
Through optical projection and sculptural intervention, the glasses become a medium for questioning perception and space. The piece invites viewers into a world where illusion, reflection, and dispersion redefine the object and its surroundings, especially during moments of personal or collective crisis, when dichotomies feel most pronounced and spaces demand reinvention.
Garavito's work challenges the boundaries between material and immaterial, pushing the limits of how we see, feel, and interpret change. Ephemeral and transient, DICHA-DESDICHA reflects a reality that constantly reinvents itself, one in which the artwork exists only through projection, and disappears without it.

Felipe Garavito Muñoz is a Colombian visual artist and sculptor, graduated from the Pontificia Universidad Javeriana, School of Arts and Letters. Raised in an environment enriched by music, literature, and theatre, Garavito developed a broad artistic foundation that shaped his multidisciplinary practice, which spans sculpture, installation, and cultural management.

Garavito is also the founder and director of El Laboratorio - Arte con Sentido, an independent cultural platform committed to curatorial experimentation, critical dialogue, and the democratization of artistic practice. For over two decades, El Laboratorio has supported artists and audiences through exhibitions, residencies, and educational programs, advocating for a more inclusive understanding of art's role in society. Central to Garavito's vision is the belief that artists reshape how we perceive and construct reality.
