Social and Environmental Awareness
A HOUSE OF SMALL ALTARS
A House of Small Altars is an exhibition about how care survives. Rooted in the lived experience of Chinese–Panamanian artist MaiYap, the exhibition considers the home as a living archive—formed through repetition, devotion, and the quiet labor of holding things together.
Presented at Edge Zones Gallery
Curated by Sophie Bonet
About
The constant search for my identity, my place in the womanhood continuum and the struggle to preserve our planet are at the heart of all my art pursuit.
Artworks
Blending East and West in a cornucopia of pure colors which are painstakingly applied solely with a palette knife, stroke by stroke, layer by layer, like weaving a tapestry with paint.
