Maritza Davila-Iriizarry: Closing Reception and Sale

Closing Reception and Sale: Travesía / Voyage

The works in Travesía / Voyage beautifully illustrate the thread that runs through all of Maritza’s work: ancestry and the collection of inseparable qualities that, through blood and culture and beyond our ability to control, help make us who we are.

Purchases from the installation and sale will assist Maritza in rebuilding her studio, which was destroyed by fire this spring.
