New York, NY USA
2023
Inspired by the Meso-American and Chinese papercut art forms whose punctures are said to let the past through, the sculptures and two dimensional artworks in Aberturas (in English, openings, passages, portals), a solo exhibition by architect Rafi Segal and artist Marisa Morán Jahn, brings focus to the aesthetic language characterizing the collaborative duo’s socially engaged, civic scale projects. Presented for the first time in a fine art gallery context, the works on view at Sapar Contemporary give attention to their collaborative works’ intense bursts of color, play of forms and shadows, and geometric patterns of solids and voids.
