Rojas + Rubensteen Projects: Water Me
October 13, 2016 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Thursday, October 13th from 7-9pm join us at Rojas + Rubensteen Projects in Little River for the opening reception of ‘Water Me‘, an immersive exhibition challenging and nurturing the art on the walls (floors & ceilings) by constantly encouraging you to activate the art on view and stimulate conversation.
In South Florida everything is about water. We not only drink it and wash with it, we swim, snorkel and paddle through it. It nourishes our tropical lushness and keeps our lawns unnaturally green. Its currents bring us asylum-seekers and storms. We are pummeled by afternoon rains then make our way barefoot in shiny deep waters. It is a nursery for mosquitos and a precious resource contaminated by every form of human run-off.
Artists: Hila Amram (Israel), Franky Cruz (Miami), Orestes de la Paz (Miami), Troizel Carr + Isabelle Hui Saldaña (New York/ Georgia) and Naomi Safran-Hon (New York) explore the power and interactive quality of water. On view October 13th through November 16th, 2016.
