It's no secret that Mexico City has a vivid art scene, there's always something popping, a new exhibit, a new gallery, an opening, an open studio. The more I have immersed myself in this world, the greater my understanding that art is subjective and lies in the eye of the beholder. I´ve learned that it is observed through one's unique worldview, which is influenced by perspective, personal taste, and past experiences.
Art is inherently personal. While I have connected with various pieces as a viewer, it was not until I witnessed Santiago Mora's most recent solo exhibition “Extremely superficial, incredibly painful” held at Salon Silicon, that I truly sensed the message breaking out of the canvas of each painting.
