Joel Gaitan is the third commissioned artist of Season Six. Coinciding with the artist’s solo exhibition En El Corazón Del Infierno, En Las Alturas Del Cielo at KDR, come out to celebrate all month.
Joel's practice is a profoundly personal exploration of his Nicaraguan ancestry and upbringing in Miami. A fused inspiration with a nod to his Central American heritage, his new works in the exhibit En El Corazón Del Infierno, En Las Alturas Del Cielo unfold across distinct chapters: Genesis, The Absolute, and Revelations. Here, Joel’s cross-cultural study challenges historical hierarchies, transcending boundaries and weaving narratives in every sculpture.
Join us for the unveiling event. We’re going full immersion in Joel’s world!
