Peek-a-Peep
Installation
In the piece, Peek-A-Peep, an installation piece encompassing two wall structures with several peep holes placed at varying heights. This work was installed at my solo exhibition, Might Be Tragic, at the Visual Arts Gallery at The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley. The paintings, placed in the wall structure, were created with gouache paint on paper and feature flat areas of color, simplification of forms and figures, a bold and vibrant color palette, and a playfulness with perspective.
