A shell carpet created by the Bueu association Cunchas e Flores has returned to the Museo Massó in Bueu after being displayed in connection with the exhibition ‘Máscara y Compás’, according to an announcement from the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía.

The museum described the object as the shell carpet made for the inauguration of the Maruja Mallo presentation. After receiving visitors to ‘Máscara y Compás’, the work travelled back to the Museo Massó, which the announcement referred to as its home.

The carpet was produced by Asociación Cunchas e Flores de Bueu, linking the exhibition-related display to the Galician town where the Museo Massó is located. The available announcement does not provide further information about the carpet’s materials, dimensions, display dates or the exact location of the exhibition.

The Reina Sofía’s notice, published on August 29, 2026, presented the return as a local update rather than announcing a new exhibition or event. No additional schedule or programming details were supplied.
