Artistas en diálogo
23.07.25
On Wednesday, July 23, Proyecto´ace opened its doors to share with the public the processes of three artists: Mia Zheng (China–USA) and Ilana Diddams (USA), artists in residence, and Cecilia Luque (Argentina), a local artist invited to participate in the Carapantallas Project. This encounter between artists and the public allowed for an exploration of different creative universes connected by observation, affectivity, and the relationship with the contexts we inhabit.
In Within the Apertures, Mia Zheng transformed the space into a constellation of images that explore the window as a metaphor for perception, memory, and becoming. Her digitally manipulated analog photographs invited viewers to cross thresholds where past and future intertwine, mixing real negatives with digitally constructed negatives.
Ilana Diddams presented a work in progress that reflects on the urban history and material memory of the coast of the Río de la Plata. Through photolithographs and stones rescued from the Ecological Reserve, she proposed a sensitive dialogue with the architectural vestiges that shape the urban landscape of the Buenos Aires coast.
For her part, Cecilia Luque intervened in the Carapantallas Project with Sweet Chronicles, a work that combines solidarity, printmaking, and affective memory. Collages, texts, and drawings of homemade sweets conveyed an intimate gesture of care to the public space, while the artist shared with the audience sweets she had made herself to flavour an afternoon full of art and affection.
