Z'otz* Collective at MacLaren Art Cetre
Hourglass Continent reunites artists that formed the Latin Collective at Ontario College of Art + Design. They have remained allied by mutual purpose and awareness while their careers distinctly evolved in disparate locations. Each has developed an intensive, extended drawing practice that involves pronounced elements of Mexican and Central American iconography, mythology and history, combined with personal experiences.
Montreal-based Osvaldo Ramirez Castillo and Oaxaca, México-based Oscar Camilo de las Flores were born in El Salvador and displaced during its civil war of the 1980s. Toronto-based Z’otz* Collective includes Nahúm Flores (born Honduras), Erik Jerezano (born Mexico) and Ilyana Martínez (born Canada).
Hourglass Continent connotes an active, flowing Americas cultural diaspora that retains a distinctive granular composition as it pours across boundaries and over time.
March 3, 2012 - May 26, 2012
Curator: Ben Portis
Janice Laking Gallery
