About this event
Artist Talk with Omar Barquet
New Collection and RedLine present an artist talk with Mexico City-based creative Omar Barquet. Join us at RedLine to get a behind-the-scenes look at Barquet’s practice.
Omar Barquet’s (b.1979, Mexico) works predominantly refer to space, time, landscape, sound, nature, and memory investigating emotional and internal human chaos within. The particularity of his work stems from his ability to understand the nature of space in a technical, analytical way that relates movement and repetition, visibility, and invisibility.
Barquet modifies his source of inspiration in his words “in a way of ‘collage’ for the purpose of giving the projects a synthetic language” thereby bringing an interdisciplinary aspect to it, using a "symphony" as a system to organize all his projects and collaborations.
