THE LATINX NOTION IN NEXT: FIVE ARTISTS FEATURED IN PINTA MIAMI
Pinta Miami brings together artists who explore the identity, memory and cultural diversity of Ibero-America. In this 2024 edition, several proposals seek to redefine the Latinx notion from unique and transformative perspectives.
Sandro Pereira: a channeling process
Sandro Pereira, represented by The White Lodge, presents works that explore the concept of energy as living matter, reflecting his own body and its connection with the environment. Inspired by Jacobo Grinberg's theory of energetic synthesis, Pereira transcends the conventional dimensions of time and space, employing photography as a medium to capture processes of exposure and vegetative symbolism present in pre-Columbian art, Mexican muralism and Brazilian anthropophagy.
Graciela Arias: inheritance and reconnection
The work of Graciela Arias, represented by BLOC Art Perú, draws from her Amazonian and Andean heritage. Her paintings incorporate myths from the Amazon region; she relates with the strength and the resilience of the Shipibo-konibo women's collective practices. Arias combines social, economic and religious criticism with a call to preserve nature and traditions for future generations.
Ariana Macedo: testimony of a silenced role
Also represented by BLOC Art Perú, Ariana Macedo creates installations that explore motherhood from an everyday perspective. She uses unprocessed sheep's wool and weaving techniques inherited from her family lineage. Her pieces turn daily feminine objects into testimonies of silenced roles: the domestic is re-signified as a space of memory and resistance. Her work vindicates the textile tradition as a cultural artistic language deeply rooted in Latin America.
Natalia Montoya: cultural crossroads in the Andean highlands
From Iquique, in northern Chile, Natalia Montoya -represented by Judas Gallery- combines textile, sculpture and video to reinterpret the symbology and cosmogony of Andean culture. Her works integrate contemporary materials such as industrial woods and synthetic fabrics, reflecting the impact of globalization in the highland territories. Montoya rescues local traditions while documenting historical cultural crossroads, such as the African influence in the region. She establishes a dialogue between the traditional and the modern, celebrating the richness of hybrid identities in Latin America.
Pablo Lincura: Identity and Territory through the Body
Pablo Lincura, also represented by Judas Gallery, focuses his work on oil painting on canvas to reflect on Mapuche tradition and the relationship between male bodies and territory. Incorporating these figures into visual narratives, Lincura addresses issues of historical and environmental advocacy from the perspective of native communities. His work highlights the deep bond between communities and the planet, and how these visions can contribute to a global discourse on the care and regeneration of the Earth.
