Lower Space: Laura Viñas, Artist in Residence from Argentina: For her first solo show at Expressiones Cultural Center, Viñas will fill the lower Space with three of her distinct visions of the world in Mundis in Mundis (a multimedia installation).
“In the world portrayed in her Inevitable Drawings, she examines the human gaze as an instrument of power, dominance, and just maybe, shared understanding. From drawing she moves into photography, capturing the internal structure of the drawings , where gesture meets thought.
In the world of her Pampa Landscapes, the emptiness and boundless spaces gives her the opportunity to reflect on silence, distance and belonging.
In Flyland, the works make reference to the potential for mischief that certain insignificant yet powerful beings hold within. She chose to illustrate this through a metaphor; “flies and their uncanny similarity to human beings”.
