Monte Vista Projects is proud to present Willed to be, a new installation by
@srrysara and
@stacey_calle_ .
Please join us for the opening reception on Saturday, May 2nd, 7-10 pm
Sara Mehrinfar and Stacey Calle’s ideas of home have been fundamentally shaped by their upbringings as immigrants/children of immigrants from Argentina and Ecuador, respectively. These experiences have in turn shaped the artists’ new collaborative exhibition, Willed to be, on view for the first time at Monte Vista Projects. The title of the exhibition is a riff on the idiom “to will into existence.” Through the materials of flour, bread, and glass, Willed to be reflects on our ability—and the limits of our ability—to exert control over ourselves, our homes, and our realities more broadly.
Willed to be is on view from May 2 — May 24 at 1206 Maple Avenue, 5th floor, #523. The gallery is open Saturdays and Sundays from 1-5pm and by appointment.
