Mario Navarro
Visual Arts Residency
Mario Navarro is a Mexican American artist based in New York City. Issues of perception, the combination of language and spatial elements, the sculptural properties of language, and matter/materials and their representations are lines of research Navarro has been investigating lately. The relations between architectures and forms, and more specifically, the decomposition of architectural paradigms (balance, symmetry, organization of units and the figure of the architect) are of constant interest and are explored in Navarro’s ongoing and never final propositions. Selected exhibition include “A Landscape of Events,” SCAD Museum of Art, Savannah, GA (2017); “Veil / Unveil,” Proyecto Paralelo, Mexico City (2017); “Mi Casa, Tu Casa,” Johannes Vogt Gallery, New York (2016); and “Forms of otherness,” organized by Bard College, International Studio and Curatorial Program (ISCP), Brooklyn (2015).
