Antonio Pichillá, The Offering
Antonio Pichillá Quiacaín (1982, San Pedro La Laguna, Sololá) belongs to the Maya Tz'utujil ethnic group. He uses his formal art training as a strategy to change the Eurocentric understanding of Maya art. The artist draws on the cultural heritage of his ancestors and uses it as a medium. He connects rituals and customs that honour the cosmogony of the Maya, demonstrating the contemporary relevance of their ancestral wisdom. In his art practice, he employs natural materials and combines them with fabric as the guiding thread of a discourse of resistance.
The exhibition will be opened by Mateja Demšič, MA, Head of the Department for Culture of the City of Ljubljana. After the opening, you are invited to a guided tour of the exhibition with the artist and the curator, which will be held in Spanish and simultaneously translated into Slovenian.
Curator of the exhibition: Yasmín Martín Vodopivec.
