I am excited to be exhibiting a new sculpture with the Filipinx Artists of Houston at the McNay Art Museum in San Antonio, Texas with the 2021 Texas Biennial: A New Landscape, A Possible Horizon. Thank you to the Curators & Artistic Directors of the Texas Biennial 2021 Ryan N. Dennis and Evan Garza.
The Texas Biennial is a geographically-led, independent survey of contemporary art in Texas. The 2021 Texas Biennial: A New Landscape, A Possible Horizon is the seventh iteration of the program, making the Texas Biennial the longest-running state biennial in the country. The program was founded in 2005 by Austin nonprofit Big Medium to provide an exhibition opportunity open to all artists living and working in the state. Since its inception, the Texas Biennial has brought the work of over 300 artists to new audiences, springboarding many artists’ careers and underscoring the diversity of contemporary practice in Texas.
I am honored that the first of a new series of Player Piano Roll drawings will be debuting in this exhibition alongside fellow artists and friends of the Filipinx Artists of Houston. This new series began in June 2021 while at Fountainhead Residency in Miami, Florida. The time and support at Fountainhead has continued to be inspirational further explore the ideas, materials, and connections that the community in Miami helped me to generate.
