Today I visited a very interesting exhibition in Valencia.

This exhibition, "Higiene pública: la sociedad como cuerpo enfermo" by Daniel Gasol, critically examines how laws, science, and religion in Spain historically worked together to criminalize, pathologize, and punish individuals who did not conform to societal norms—especially regarding sexuality, gender, race, and social class. By analyzing the "Vagos y Maleantes" (1933–1970) and "Peligrosidad Social" (1970–1995) laws, the project reveals how these frameworks were used to regulate and discipline desires and non-normative relationships, often through medicalization, therapy, or imprisonment. The exhibition uses archival material, installations, and artistic documentation to highlight the ways in which dissenting identities were not only studied but also treated as illnesses to be corrected, exposing the enduring legacy of social control and exclusion.
