Ana Gómez, Casey Whittier Jarrett Mellenbruch
July–August
What does a territory truly mean? Is it a place, a material, or a shared experience?
In this interview, we speak with artists Ana Gómez, Casey Whittier, and Jarrett Mellenbruch, who take us behind the scenes of Territory Is an Act to share the creative processes, ideas, and reflections that gave rise to this exhibition.
Through their own voices, we explore how clay, wool, ceramics, and other materials become a means of addressing territory, memory, care, and the ways in which we inhabit and relate to space.
We invite you to discover the exhibition from the perspective of those who made it possible and to learn more about the stories and ideas behind each artwork.
If you enjoy learning about creative processes and understanding art through the voices of the artists themselves, this video is for you.

Diego Liedo
Oct 15 - Ene 30
2025
The exhibition Residual brings together a series of sound and kinetic objects in which Diego Liedo explores the relationship between matter, energy, and perception. Through electronic devices, acoustic mechanisms, and autonomous sound-generating systems, the artist creates works that are not only observed, but experienced over time. Each piece proposes a form of attentive listening, inviting viewers to recognize sound as a physical, spatial, and also emotional phenomenon.
The works in Residual function as living systems: they vibrate, emit pulses, and are activated by the environment or by the presence of the audience. At this intersection of art, technology, and sensitivity, Liedo offers a reflection on the invisible processes that surround us and on how sound can become a medium for perceiving what usually goes unnoticed.
The exhibition includes Apistos Sýnthesi, a generative synthesizer based on Arduino, designed to produce sound compositions in constant evolution. Its structure allows the musical sequence to slowly transform over time, making each listening experience different. The work can be activated directly or left to operate autonomously, generating soundscapes that oscillate between the harmonic and the unpredictable.

What happens when art, science, and sound come together?
In this interview, Diego Liedo invites us into Heliófonos, an exhibition born from his interest in interpreting the Sun through sound-producing instruments built with wood, metal, electronics, and data derived from solar phenomena.
Throughout the conversation, the artist shares the origins of the project, the processes behind each piece, and the ways in which disciplines such as astronomy, physics, and music converge to create a unique listening experience.
We invite you to discover the exhibition through the voice of its creator and to explore the ideas, research, and experimentation that brought Heliófonos to life.

Ana Gómez
Mar 20 - Ago 5 2025
As part of the exhibition Cúmulos y Paisajes, we organized an interview with the artist Ana Gómez, in which she shared the ideas and processes that shaped her proposal. The artist begins with fundamental questions: “If my body is a form, and the earth is the space that contains it, can I conceive of myself as part of the landscape?” Through these reflections, Gómez creates works that connect identity, territory, and materiality, establishing a dialogue between the human and the natural.
In the series Cuerpo territorio, for example, she traces the silhouette of her body with clay, constructing herself as a vessel; while in Devolver la tierra a la montaña, she intervenes tiles with local and industrial clays, small symbolic gestures that seek to return matter to its origin.
During the conversation, Gómez noted that her intention is not to extract materials in a literal way, but rather to represent a sensitive connection with the environment.
She concluded with a phrase that summarizes her vision: “I want to return myself to the earth.”
The interview offers an intimate look into Ana Gómez’s thinking and the conceptual depth of Cúmulos y Paisajes, an exhibition currently on view at Ache Galería.
Esperanza Zavala
Oct 3 - Jan13 2025
Life in the countryside, in Mexquitic, has allowed the artist to deepen her relationship with nature, recognizing both its beauty and the fragility of its resources, especially water, within the context of the climate crisis. This close experience inspires an ongoing reflection on the environment and the need to raise awareness.
This is the origin of Ríos de arena, an exhibition that takes its name from an engraving in which a mythical being, half plant and half water, encounters vanished rivers that are now sand. Through this symbol, the artist proposes small rituals and works created with materials from her own surroundings, as a call to reconnect with nature, to give thanks, and to restore the vital bond with water.
Dialogue with the Artist
Ana Gómez
Mar 20 - Ago 5 2025
As part of the activities surrounding the exhibition Cúmulos y paisajes, a conversation was held with the artist Ana Gómez, who shared with the audience her creative process, as well as the ideas and reflections that shape her work.
During the talk, topics such as the relationship between the body and territory, the memory embedded in materials, and the importance of ancestral knowledge in her artistic practice were discussed. The gathering allowed for direct dialogue between the artist and attendees, enriching the exhibition experience through a close and personal perspective.
This activity is part of Ache Galería’s commitment to creating spaces for dialogue, reflection, and learning around contemporary art.

Cosa Rapozo
Oct 3 - Jan13 2025
In "For Every Occasion," Cosa Rapozo proposes a reflection on the decorative figures that inhabit collective memory. Using plaster casts that reproduce the appearance of Styrofoam, the artist pays homage to elements typical of ephemeral decoration in popular Mexican celebrations. This series of works activates memories, questions mechanisms of representation, and examines the symbolic role that certain forms assume when occupying our spaces. The exhibition engages in a dialogue with ephemeral architecture that, through everyday life, has defined festive and ritual settings that insist on remaining. An exhibition that invites us to reexamine what we celebrate and how we represent it.

The exhibition presents three perspectives that, using different languages and materials, propose a critical examination of the imaginaries associated with childhood, identity, and gender. Through color, embroidery, sculpture, and symbolism, the artists articulate a sensitive reflection on personal and collective memory.
Yoliztlli Sánchez explores recurring elements in her work—the cat, the house, self-portraits, the paranormal—to rethink her history and the ways she perceives herself; Ivette Gasca works with sculptures inspired by personal and archetypal mythologies. Her pieces bring together flowers, animals, and female figures that engage with themes such as transformation, rebirth, and the duality of life and death; Areli Escobedo “Kun” addresses the construction of masculinity through embroidery. In her series "Embroidering Restrictions," she collects phrases and experiences that reveal how men learn to limit themselves from an early age for fear of social judgment.
The exhibition is conceived as a space where play, metaphor, and intuition intersect to open up new ways of questioning and reconstructing our narratives.
