Rhinoceros: Outside Visit- A Universe of Fragile Mirrors by Beatriz Santiago Munoz at PAMM

Selfie at Beatriz Santiago Munoz Exhibit

I found really interesting how Beatriz Santiago Munoz portraits the politics, identity and environment of the Caribbean through powerful videos. The viewer gets an insider feeling with the imagery of her films. I wanted to explore those Haiti streets, the rituals from the girl, the ocean landscapes and the forest. Also, I love "Malascopios"and how the triangular mirrors make patterns on the walls.

"Malascopios", 2014

Some over- expose images make the videos more visually appealing. As well as the vinyl player with the nature sounds, transporting the viewer to the jungle/forest location.

Favorite video collection = Visually Appealing

This exhibition is visually attractive, the space between the videos is divided enough for the viewer to understand that each video is a separate piece, a separate story.

I enjoy "Otros Usos" video compilation because I transport myself  inside of the images and it really inspire me to explore different visual approaches to make my work successful.

I have to say that "La cabeza mato a todos" was very  intriguing; I felt engage watching the movement of the girl on the screen, putting me into a trance.

In the theater box was  difficult to identify which film I was watching, but the two I experience were captivating in different ways. The first one was an intimate conversation while the second one was a visual description of the city.

The images from A Universe of Fragile Mirrors  gave me ideas and suggestions in the ways I might want to approach my upcoming visual projects.
