Descifrando Terrenos features the work of thirteen Latinx artists from MFA programs across Southern California. The artists in this exhibition are interconnected through social constructions of space, which are revisited, reclaimed, expanded, and reimagined through artistic gestures that surface underlying historical, political, economic, and social fabrics. Their works are a collection of cultures, ideologies, visions, and strategies, and together they speak of their unique approaches towards exploring distinct terrains.
