Aeron Bergman and Alejandra Salinas: Freedom

November 09 - January 07,2024

From Artpace: "Aeron Bergman and Alejandra Salinas's exhibition, Freedom, delves into the complex relationship between humanity and the natural world. It features a mossy green wall adorned with organic black forms, each displaying small paintings created from Mesquite wood and Sumi ink. This intriguing wall sets the stage for the exhibition's central theme, delving into the intricate relationship between humanity and the natural world. Mesquite serves as a focal point for the complex interplay between nature and economic interests. The artwork raises questions about ethics and capitalism by juxtaposing John James Audubon's bird illustrations with his controversial practices. The installation includes audio discussions, stacks of reference material, painted and repurposed cardboard, and a tribute to Félix González-Torres, offering a multifaceted exploration of profit-driven, capital-centric influences on our ecosystem amidst existential and political challenges.""
