To Feel Your Weight

To Feel Your Weight invites rest, exchange, and connection among museum visitors. Colombian artist Iván Argote (Bogotá, 1983) draws inspiration from the traditional rocking chairs found across different regions of Brazil and Colombia, intertwining them in pairs or trios. The movement of the chairs only occurs when the weight of the other is acknowledged and shared.

Artist: Iván Argote

Placed on sculptural surfaces that visitors can intervene with, the Bird Chairs, whose colors are inspired by these animals, were created not only for people to sit together, but also to face one another directly.

This installation, designed for the museum’s terrace, invites us to inhabit the space differently, to pause, and to share the experience with others.

Iván Argote is a contemporary multimedia artist whose work explores the dynamics of public space and collective memory. Through sculpture, public installation, film, painting, and performance, Argote challenges dominant narratives through a combination of critique, humor, and tenderness that encourages reflection and constructive dialogue. By inviting audiences to rethink the relationships between power and place, Argote’s work points toward new futures grounded in care and mutual respect.
