Where the Sun Casts No Shadow: Postcards from the Creative Crossroads of Quito, Ecuador<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

at the Knoxville Museum of Art in Knoxville, Tennessee, USA
6 January-19 February 2023<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Wrapped around the eastern slopes of the Pichincha volcano, in the Guayllabamba River basin, Quito, Ecuador is a 16th century city and a thriving modern day metropolis. In the city\u2019s La Floresta neighborhood, artists and writers mix with entrepreneurs and digital nomads. \u201cWhere The Sun Casts No Shadow: Postcards from the Creative Crossroads of Quito, Ecuador\u201d brings together the in-camera collage works of Stephen & Eve Schaub<\/strong>, the murals of Mo V\u00e1squez<\/strong>, documentary photographs of PLAYhouse<\/strong> in Quito, the poetry of Mar\u00eda Clara Sharupi Jua<\/strong> in Spanish, English, and Shuar; and art from Quito\u2019s El Club de Collage<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The collage, poetry, and photographs in \u201cWhere The Sun Casts No Shadow\u201d touch upon themes as wide-ranging as the role of murals and poetry in Latin American culture to issues of the safety of women to how indigenous people are shaping their country\u2019s future. The exhibition traces the role collage plays in art community building and offers a counternarrative to the portrayal of Latin America as in a state of constant crisis. \u201cWhere The Sun Casts No Shadow: Postcards from the Creative Crossroads of Quito, Ecuador\u201d is a testament to the power of artist communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exhibition is a project of EveNSteve, Kolaj Magazine<\/em>, and Kasini House. The exhibition is curated by Ric Kasini Kadour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
