P谩vel Acevedo: Oaxacalifornia
14 Aug, 2017 - 15 Dec, 2017
In Oaxacalifornia, P谩vel Acevedo mines imagery that explores personal relationships, symbols of migration/immigration and borders, and the duality many immigrants contend with after leaving their homeland for a new nation. Like Acevedo, recent arrivals to the United States often feel that they reside in an inconclusive state between families and between lands, bound by invisible and visible borders. Acevedo humanizes the subjects of his work while exploring his own duality as a citizen of two worlds. Evidence of his education and background in printmaking are incorporated into Oaxacalifornia, resulting in a deeply layered narrative. Acevedo was born in Oaxaca and currently lives and works in Riverside, California.
