22 Sep - 29 Oct - "Second Chance"
Puerta Roja kicks off the fall art season with the first solo exhibition in Asia by Hong Kong based Spanish artist Cristina Moroño. “Second Chance” presents a new series of works where objects and discarded books are plunged into Cristina’s own handmade paper, which plays both as content and canvas.
The artist reflects on her new works: “Throughout my career, I have made works on paper, paintings, etchings, photography and ceramics that often depict the passage of time. Objects and people continually fade around us, too often without notice. In a time when the digital supplants the print format, I give these randomly found discarded books a second life… a Second Chance”.
