"Colombia Unbound: A Tapestry of Forms"
This exhibition presents 3 artists from Bogota, Colombia, whose work is presented in dialogue with identity, culture, and diaspora, celebrating diverse expressions and inviting evocative perspectives of Colombian history.
Camilo Carreño-Gonzalez explores the self and identity through his figurative portrait drawings. Recently featured in the book “Sketched Out: Artist Sketchbooks and Journals Unveiled”, in Hong Kong, his work intricately explores the human experience, inviting viewers to connect deeply with his subjects.
Diego Peñuela creates dreamy images shaped by his Latin American identity and the immigrant experience. His art serves as a dialogue between contrasting worlds across mediums–including animation, murals, and design–which have garnered recognition from organizations such as 3x3, Society of Illustrators LA and Latin American Illustration.
Gauli Macana Mora crafts alluring glass mosaics on skateboard decks, showcasing the dynamics of urban influences and popular culture. His creations invite audiences to engage with art through the transformation of everyday objects, reimagining traditional notions of accessibility and creativity.
Together, these artists weave a tapestry of Colombia’s vibrant history, culture, and identity, provoking reflections of balancing assimilation and tradition in a modern society.
