Attention! Laboratorio Arte Alameda has three new unmissable exhibitions that mix art, memory, science and technology. We tell you all about Deborah Castillo, Ana Hernandez and Said Dokins at Laboratorio Arte Alameda.
The first thing you should know is that they will be open from July 25 to October 26, 2025, and that these exhibitions will invite you to reflect on territory, identity and the connection with the ancestral.
Among them is Inscripciones by artist Said Dokins, a unique proposal that turns writing into a visual and political tool.
This exhibition transforms the walls of the ancient temple that today houses the museum with stylized calligraphy, pigments that glow with ultraviolet light and living bacteria that write their own language.
Inscriptions is composed of three main pieces:
- Displacements is a mural intervention that emerges from walks around the museum, creating a sensitive cartography.
- Bio_res_crituras uses bacteria collected in the city, activated by biotechnological processes. These life forms draw ephemeral messages on Petri dishes.
- Heliografías de la memoria, made together with Leonardo Luna, shows letters traced with light in front of historical monuments during night tours.
Dokins’ work -which has been recognized in countries such as France, the United Arab Emirates and Germany- seeks to open a dialogue on how history is written in public space. His proposal combines urban art, science and technology in a powerful way.

In addition, Laboratorio Arte Alameda also presents the exhibitionsGran Basamento by Deborah Castillo and Ná’ Reza [Broken Hand] by Ana Hernández. Both artists explore themes such as the body, territory and spirituality from very personal perspectives.
These exhibitions are part of a collaboration between the Ministry of Culture, INBAL and Tecnológico de Monterrey. The result is an artistic experience that breaks boundaries between disciplines and invites the public to see the city with new eyes.
You can visit them from Tuesday to Sunday from 9:00 to 17:00 hours, as the museum is closed on Mondays. The general admission fee is $35 pesos.
However, Sundays are free admission, and there are discounts for students, teachers and INAPAM with valid ID. Admission is always free for children under 13 years old.
