In the works of Gabriel Chaile (Tucumán, 1985) there is a critical-poetical intersection between anthropology, the sacred and its rituals, the political, and the pre-Columbian communities of South America, interpreted artistically and with certain eccentricity and sense of humor. In his work Patriciaʺ (2017) a sculpture made with adobe, iron, bricks and eggs (size 320 x 150 x 210 cm) specially commissioned for his first solo exhibition at the Moderno, he has combined a clay oven with a pre-Columbian devotional figure, made scaffolding into a place to sleep and has converted builderœs working notes into a written language. The syncretism in these works becomes more than the sum of its parts: it is a means of expressing the tensions and strategies of subsistence communities marginalized by the greater economy. In this project, his gaze portrays the versatility of those forced to adapt to survive.
