that which frightens us

A subterranean exhibition space becomes a site for collective inquiry during Miami Art Week as four Miami-based artists explore the boundary between what can be articulated and what remains beyond language. Situated within Primary’s underground complex—part gallery, part studio ecosystem—the presentation foregrounds an intensity shaped by shared experimentation and proximity.

that which frightens us brings together new work by David Correa, Genesis Moreno, Richard Moreno and Luna Palazzolo-Daboul, each engaging materials that stretch between the tactile and the immaterial. Across sculpture, textiles, sound and installation, the artists turn to themes of vulnerability, belief and the impulse to make meaning from what resists resolution. The exhibition approaches uncertainty not as a void, but as a force that can shape and expand understanding.

The presentation draws on a philosophical framework inspired by Vilém Flusser and his idea of the “unarticulated,” a space where the knowable and the unknowable meet. This tension becomes a guiding thread as the human desire for precision encounters the inevitability of the hand, and the residue of touch signals another form of knowledge.

The exhibition remains on view through January 17 at Primary. Visitors can experience the work within an architecture that blurs interior and exterior, elevates modest materials and supports the interconnected practices rooted in its underground studios.
