Where You Left Off
May 2022, Tiger Strikes Asteroids, Philadelphia, PA
Where You Left Off is an interdisciplinary exhibition conceived and curated by Tally de Orellana and David Ayala-Alfonso uniting makers from Mexico City and the United States. Conversational and collaborative, this project spotlights the making process first, the final artwork coming at the end.
In collaboration with Tiger Strikes’s Asteroid artist network, we asked a number of artists based in Mexico City and in the United States to think of present times, as Covid19 has shown us the fragility of our bodies and society at large, while enhancing the need for connectivity, both virtually and physically.
Working in pairs, the participant artists will open up the virtual doors to their making process to the public. We documented each step of this process in our blog, each entry picking up on where the artists Left things Off.
We did not know what the artworks would look like. As curators, our job was to show you this creative process, and let the spectator be surprised by the end product.
