María Magdalena Campos-Pons is among the 110 participants in In Minor Keys, the 61st International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia, on view through November 22, 2026.
Campos-Pons presents a new installation with collaborator Kamaal Malak in the Giardini, a work that participates in one of the exhibition's guiding conceptual threads: the creole garden and the courtyard as sites of imaginative freedom, self-reliance, and collective nourishment. The work draws on the tradition of créolité and the lakou as, in poet Monchoachi's words, "the place of exchange… the place from which speech unfolds from different and keeps it gathered and in harmony."
