I’m showing my work at tonight at exhibition, TIERRA FUTURA: Boricua Land Futures, open in Providence RI on Thursday March 5, from 6-9pm at WaterFire Center for the Arts! I will be showing pieces from Atabey & El Litoral photo series. The exhibition will be on view until March 29th. Come through & support 🫶🏽
TIERRA FUTURA is both a solo exhibition by artist Shey Rivera Ríos and a group exhibition of 22 artists from the archipelago of Borikén (Puerto Rico) and its diasporas across the United States. This is the first time in the past decade that a contemporary art exhibition of all Puerto Rican artists is presented in New England. The artworks are vessels of land-based memory, rural identity, eco-feminisms, q***r Boricua joy, cultural rituals, and tributes to significant ancestors. 🌿Swipe to see the entire list of incredible artists who are part of this show!
There will also be artworks and additional prints for sale at the WaterFire Arts Center during the month of March, so you can support Boricua artists by owning an artwork from this show. There’s also additional programming, with workshops, performances and artist talks throughout the month. Hope to see you there!
