Ben
Goldman and Arts High student Fabian Saa were a compatible pair that developed
a friendship in which they were able to address their differences and their
common ground. The fact that Fabian was born in Ecuador and Ben in the United
States led them to survey what we can call, the diasporic experience of
art. As Ben puts it, “This quartet of paintings explores communications
across cultural and experiential divides.” The pieces shown here are
part of a collaborative process, where the two artists explored their memories
of other places from different subjective positions like the tourist and
the immigrant and its correspondent process of adaptation and assimilation.
They were explored from our permanently constructed space: home. |
