WHAT

Join us at RedLine for an artist talk with Mexico City-based creative Omar Barquet (b.1979, Mexico).

Barquet’s works predominantly refer to space, time, landscape, sound, nature, and memory investigating emotional and internal human chaos within. The particularity of his work stems from his ability to understand the nature of space in a technical, analytical way that relates movement and repetition, visibility, and invisibility.

Barquet modifies his source of inspiration in his words “in a way of ‘collage’ for the purpose of giving the projects a synthetic language” thereby bringing an interdisciplinary aspect to it, using a "symphony" as a system to organize all his projects and collaborations.

Food and drinks provided.

New Collection is a project-based art collection designed to foster artist collaboration and empower creative expression.
