Intima Introitum (Intimate Passages) is the first ever solo exhibition by emergent Chicano artist Mat Hurtado. The artworks in the exhibition are a glimpse into Hurtado’s own subjectivity. As a 25 year old Chicano, Hurtado looks introspectively; his artwork depicts the various preoccupations of his livelihood in the greater Los Angeles area. Intima Introitum is a unique possibility to peak at instances of his artistic and personal journey thus far.

In Hurtado’s own words “I dig deep and bare my heart on canvas.” Toying with everyday concerns, Hurtado asks that we too venture further into his Intima Introitum. Hurtado will be present at the opening reception.
