This fall, Zuzeum Art Centre will present UTOPIC CELLS, a solo exhibition by American artist Donna Huanca. This multi-sensory project incorporates painting, sculpture, video, sound, and smells. UTOPIC CELLS marks the artist’s most comprehensive, large-scale, solo institutional exhibition in the Baltics.
Donna’s works are featured in the Zuzāns Collection and inspired this project, specially created for Zuzeum. Donna Huanca builds a new and experimental scenery with each of her installations, always hinting at previous bodies of work and still, crafted with attention for its singular context and architecture. She uses materials intimately connected to the natural world, such as oils, sand, and clay.
In UTOPIC CELLS, Huanca creates a versatile and dynamic space in which the visitor becomes an integral part of the installation, as heir own movements interact with the reflective sculptures, in turn responding to the paintings.
