Invincible
This exhibition pays tribute to the vibrant culture, heritage and resiliency of the LatinX diaspora. Curated by MarinMOCA artist member Luis Garcia, it features the work of seven Northern California artists: Juana Alicia, Edgar Arturo-Camacho, Lark Calderon-Gomez, Luis Garcia, Ramona Garcia, Manuel Ruelas and Pablo Villicana Lara. These artists explore their world view through work that investigates constant鈴nd often taboo鈴hemes in the LatinX Community, including post-colonial identity, racism, sexual identity, gentrification, immigration, and poverty.
Curator Luis Garcia states: 鈥 鈥楨stado Invincible,鈥 or 鈥楿nconquerable State鈥 means not capable of being subdued or brought under control. I believe that 鈥楨stado Invincible鈥 is a state of mind that resides within artists of color and LatinX communities in general. There is resilience within our communities, where the spirit thrives. In a time of division, and uncertainty, it is important to amplify all voices, especially those of underrepresented communities of color. This exhibition hopes to do that, to broaden viewers鈥 perspectives, to educate, and to reinforce the 鈥楿nconquerable State鈥 of mind.鈥
