  • Overview
Shake Loose My Skin, Na'ye Perez

Welancora Gallery is pleased to present Shake Loose My Skin, a solo presentation of new mixed media works, a short film and an installation by Na’ye Perez (b. 1992). Perez’s works focus on community and landscape as it relates to memory. This exhibition will be on view from April 18 to June 6, 2024. The opening reception will take place on Thursday, April 18 from 6:00pm to 8:00pm.

 

How does one capture the essence of a community and what does it mean to document its life cycle? Perez’s eclectic mixed media compositions encapsulate the vibrancy, shared joys, histories, and traumas of inner city youth culture. Creating scenes that are a blend of reality and imagination, Perez uses a wide range of materials to archive the small, fleeting moments of everyday life in various places. Fond, albeit fading, memories from Brooklyn, Los Angeles, and Columbus, Ohio are given new life through bold colors, as well as lush textures and patterns.

 

Please note that this exhibition no longer closes on May 30 and has been newly extended through June 6, 2024.
