The idea that a sense of place is always the present does not hold for paintings. The painting is not a linear process, but one that is as layered as there are places that I have seen.  —Roberto Juarez

Juarez’s oversized flowers hover before a bright background of green and pink stripes interspersed with yellow rectangles. This underlying geometry gives structure to the flowers’ bursting organic forms. Tonal shifts from red to brown in the blossoms, from green to blue in the leaves, abound. The artist’s dynamic palette is matched only by his energetic and expressive brushwork.

From the 2024 exhibition Immersive Worlds: Real and Imagined, curated by Amelia Kahl, Barbara C. & Harvey P. Hood 1918 Senior Curator of Academic Programming and Neely McNulty, Hood Foundation Curator of Education
