FEATURING:
The Casita
Tucked away in corner neighborhood gardens of East Harlem, and
originating
in Puerto Rico, the casita ("little house") is a place where a
community gathers,
playing live music, meeting friends, family and preparing an afternoon
barbeque. It is a vernacular structure that dates back to the rich days
of Puerto
Rico's farming economy. This installation, recently constructed for a
show at
the Museo de Arte de Puerto Rico, is now travelling to NYC for Tropic
of Cancer.
Created by Doze Green, David Ellis, Chris Mendoza, Jose Parla, and
Rostarr.
Sun Stone Interpretations
Drawing inspiration from the Aztec and Maya calendars, the participating
artists will create a series of sun dials displaying their vision and
interpretation
of telling time and ritual, as it was told before the modern day
calendar. In
transforming the space and by stimulating the senses, we evoke thought
and
dialog of one's own being in time and destiny.
The artists possess a rich vocabulary in iconography, expressed through
versatile mediums of painting, graphic design, murals and sculpture.
With a
highly evolved style and unique language of symbols that blend the
natural
and mystical folklore, they recontextualize myth and ancestry.
