Correa’s Artwork Displayed in Charlyn Gallery
Juan Correa, lecturer in art, printmaking, has his new exhibition "Acompáñame a Estar Solo" on display in the Charlyn Gallery in Ophelia Parrish.
Correa's art practice involves visually altering and reinterpreting traditions, experiences and symbols of his formative years. Referencing memory, mortality and identity through drawings and prints, his works depict childhood scenes that attempt to give viewers insight into the complexity of the human condition by examining his own. He considers his art an act of mutuality, a reassurance that we are not alone and more connected than we think, aiming to blur labels that differentiate us and focus on the human experiences that link us all.
