Live Studio Visits: Edison Peñafiel with René Morales
May 6, 2021 @ 7:00 pm
Thursday, May 6th at 7pm join the Pérez Art Museum Miami‘s (PAMM) Live Studio Visits, a series that highlights local artists through virtual visits with PAMM curators. Get a first-hand look at the artists’ work and practice through this intimate lens.
This month, multidisciplinary artist Edison Peñafiel will join in conversation with PAMM Chief Curator René Morales to discuss how his work examines the lives of archetypal individuals ensnared in major conflicts, including the migrant, the laborer, and the surveilled. Working with photography, video, installation, collage, and painting, Peñafiel’s practice channels migrant narratives in order to transmit to the viewer the reality behind the experience of marginalization.
This program will be offered remotely on Zoom. RSVP here to join live!
