Behind VA Shadows Gallery, Linden Street, Cambridge, MA
“Miren Por Mi Ventana is a collaboration between Tertulia Latine Artist Collective and Behind VA Shadows to present the lived experiences and identities of Latine and Caribbean artists in Greater Boston.
This show invites the public to, literally, look through a window to see the artists’ interior lives; between work, family, community, and self. The show uses the experimental and accessible nature of the 24/7 space to both invite and distance, using the glass as a portal and barrier. This speaks to how Latine culture and art are often exoticized or othered, giving artists the power to decide how the public approaches their narratives. Artists are asked to engage with this prompt and format in the way that they wish, to show what being Latine truly means in our present-day context in the United States.
