Celebrity guide, Lt. Governor Elizabeth Roberts looks on as artist Raquel Paiewonsky discusses her work, titled “im propia”. with visitors at last month’s Gallery Night Providence.
“im propia” speaks of humanity and freedom, through a corporeal symbolism that embodies our experience in the social context but always with an important reference to our natural and instinctive self. Paiewonsky uses the body as a platform that allows her from an intimate place to approach broader topics ranging from social, philosophical or political. In this exhibition, she explores personal relationships, childhood, love, stereotypes, nature, diversity.
