justine hồng-giang nguyễn-nguyễn was born on a Monday morning; today, nguyễn-nguyễn is making, mending, and writing. Building upon experience as a garment worker, n-n converses with the cultural and corporeal histories of the hand-me-down. Interstitial, associative, and process-oriented, n-n’s practice between text and textiles resembles a form of nesting. Alongside a textile repair service, nguyễn-nguyễn is working on an interlingual poetic manuscript, "second chants," which draws upon clumsy translation and reduplication to frame familiarity/foreignness and accumulation/erosion as binocularity, rather than binary.

Gouache on paper

2020

Alfonso Barrera lives and works in Oaxaca, a place that significantly influenced his training as an artist. His work has been exhibited in Mexico, the United States, Europe and Japan. His images examine human expression and the symbolic, drawing from his own personal experiences and emotions. In this sense, his art is self-referential. In his artistic language, he boldly combines dissimilar references, such as horror cinema, pre-Hispanic art, popular music, religion, spirituality, visual metaphors/representational, and art history. In 2012 he founded, together with the artist Mirel Fraga, the independent publisher Polvoh Press, a multiple graphics project that brings together his personal work and that of local artists.
