Description

This exhibit explores the relationships between fear and desire. In the tradition of Lysistrata, Ponce uses some humor to reflect on love and war, wholeness and fragmentation. The artist is intrigued by how small scale “personal moments” can have a larger and more powerful presence when grouped together, or accumulated over time. The desegregation of the body in a formal sense, allows the coverage of a bigger psychological and physical space. By this act of dispersion, transcendence is achieved.
