How Many Angels Fit on the Head of a Pin? by Bárbara Sánchez-Kane is the first solo exhibition presented at Collegium, and all the works included are new productions. The exhibition explores how structures such as religion and the market influence identity and the body. Presented in the Church of San Martín, the exhibition engages with the history and symbolic meaning of this space. Taking its title from the text Nuevo catecismo para indios remisos by Carlos Monsiváis, the exhibition ironically questions the mechanisms of indoctrination and their relationship to consumption and capitalism. Sánchez-Kane uses fashion as a critical tool, creating sculptures and garments that evoke uniforms, armor, and sacred figures. Her materials—leather belts, bronze, punching bags, and flagpoles—transform symbols of authority and discipline into forms of expression and resistance. The exhibition draws a parallel between religion and fashion, both as systems that regulate behavior and desires. In this changing space, Sánchez-Kane's work breaks traditional hierarchies and suggests new forms of autonomy. "How Many Angels Fit on the Head of a Pin?" is a reflection on the structures that shape bodies and their habits.
