Hispanic and Latinx artists taking up space feels especially urgent now more than ever. As undergraduate artists, we are still learning how to make our voices heard and how those voices manifest through our work. Navigating identity in art can be complex. There is often a tension between creating work that reflects who we are and resisting the expectation that our work must center our identity.
Culture inevitably shapes artistic practice. Whether addressed directly or presented more subtly, it informs the perspectives, materials, and stories artists bring to their work. This exhibition embraces that range, highlighting the many ways Hispanic and Latinx artists engage with culture, identity, and personal experience while continuing to define their own creative paths.
