August 13 – Back BOX gallery Opening and Artist talk
BOX 13 ArtSpace will be holding second opening event this month for our Back gallery on August 13, 2022, 1PM – 5PM. In our Back BOX gallery Milagros Collective exhibits soft goods which incorporates large painted textiles that will immerse the gallery in color and pattern.
There will also be an Artist talk by all artist exhibiting from 2pm – 3PM
In the Front BOX gallery, we have Sandra de la Rosa’s show “Border Theory”. Her visual representation of walls and barriers works as a metaphor for exclusion, uncertainty, containment. The spaces depicted in her work are representations of experiences felt by immigrants, including herself. We are both surrounded and kept out by metaphorical walls that creates a liminal space felt internally. I create these spaces through painting and drawing.
In the Window BOX you will find Chelsea Clarke’s show “Self-Soothe”. Her work responds to the effects of disability on her personality and studio practice. This experience intersects with queer identity and how these discrete, yet intertwining perspectives allow her to explore supposed contradictions
All three shows will run until October 1, 2022, and gallery hours are every Saturday from 1PM – 5PM at BOX 13 ArtSpace, 6700 Harrisburg, Houston, TX 77011.
