Borderlust
by Mauricio Paz Viola & Justin Earl Grant
“Scientists say that human beings are made of atoms, but a little bird told me that we are also made of stories.”
Eduardo Galeano
Mauricio Paz Viola & Justin Earl Grant celebrate their second exhibition together. After their shared experiences in Santiago de Chile 2015, they are reunited once again in the city of Houston.
Borderlust is a reflection on the dynamic experience of how we construct our identity as an emancipatory and paradoxical process.
Paz Viola & Grant’s collection of works present a series of silhouettes of the human figure whose limits are traced and shows the interconnection of the subject with the whole.
Bonderlust aspires to reaffirm the magnitude of possibilities of the expansion of the human being.
Opening // Saturday September 28 @4:00pm
On view until Sat. Oct. 12th
Mon. – Fri. 10 am – 2 pm
Mon. – Sat. 2pm 6pm visits are by prior appointment: info@justinearlgrant.com
