OPEN HOUSE WITH ALEJANDRA ARIAS SEVILLA

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 6:00 - 7:30 PM - AT DIEU DONNÉ

Our autumn Open House will feature Alejandra Arias Sevila, 2024 Marabeth Cohen-Tyler Print/Paper Fellow.

All Open Houses include an artist talk and a tour of the Dieu Donné gallery and studio.

Alejandra's artistic practice is founded in printmaking, seeing it as a series of translations through loss, addition, and deformation. She often uses limitations as guidelines to expand on wonderment and investigation in her art and process. Enthralled by the relationship between translation and shadow, her recent works in paper explore the semiotics of wrought iron guards, text, and the color blue.
