"Gabriel Orozcos diverse and playful practice, which includes sculpture, photography, painting and video, explores philosophical conundrums through random encounters and spatial relationships. Using objects and situations taken from the contemporary urban environment, Orozco makes visible the poetry of chance connections and paradox."
Enrique Chagoya makes paintings and prints about the changing nature of culture. "My artwork is a conceptual fusion of opposite cultural realities that I have experienced in my lifetime. I integrate diverse elements: from pre-Columbian mythology, western religious iconography and American popular culture."
"I am using my imagination to capture the psychology of a segmented reality. These realities which are deposited into our subconscious everyday are the basis for a dialogue that goes mostly unnoticed. Once these "segmented realities" or images are transferred and converted into paintings they become a "memory document" , a sort of time capsule for my experience in history. " -Jose Parla
