About the exhibition:
Fragile Intangibilities
comprises 11 hand-sewn silk organza camping tents. Each tent is suffused with drawings made with ink inspired by interviews that Arthur conducted. Arthur, a Venezuelan-born immigrant, was in conversation with fellow first-generation immigrants and migrants in New York City and Connecticut.
These floating, translucent mobile homes depict the unique and personal stories as kaleidoscopic spectrums of amalgamated memories. They contain depictions of personal mythologies that families reproduce. Interrelated sequences do not merely establish human action in time, they also establish themselves in memory, which repeats and re-collects the course of events. Engaging the theme of movement and confronting these histories, the travelers’ retelling requires a return to the past to reformulate the story in the present and to bring it forward to the possibilities of the future.
