Fall 2023 Visual Culture: REPRESENT!: Misapprehended ROMULO MARTINEZ Disconnected from our being (society individual), 2021 Drawing w/ Colored Pencil, Acrylic Paint, Silkscreen and Varnish on Canvas, 90” x 50.5” x 1.5” My work follows that endless balance between mind and heart and the search for signs to find ourselves through introspection, which involves communicating and understanding everything that surround us and impacts our feelings and journey. Not always we take the chance to interpret others, the sentiment and background to their decision and by rushing to get an answer we misjudge the way of others. These works portrayed circumstances that tells a story behind someone trying to find something out there, whether is changing channels to tune in (Disconnected from our being), find the strength to move forward despite being rooted (Aspirations and their directions) or seeing our current society that limit themselves to communicate and get together to agree and have valuable conversation like the famous see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil but joined by those who want to do them all (Limited liability Society). 30
Juror: Enrique Fernández Cervantes ROBERTA MASCIARELLI _Captain’s_Log_02_2022, 2022 Assemblage Sculpture w/ Repurposed Materials, 15.5” x 21” x 3” “Captain’s_Log_02_2022” vividly portrays a time-traveling spaceship captain observing Earth’s transition from recovery after COVID to devastation, triggered by the Ukraine-Russia conflict that commenced in February 2022. The artwork captures the initial sense of hopefulness following the pandemic, which is abruptly shattered by the outbreak of a violent conflict that profoundly impacts Ukraine’s fate. The mention of a potential “Deus-Ex-Machina” event introduces an element of uncertainty to the narrative, leaving the captain with unanswered questions about Earth’s ultimate fate. He remains distant from the unfolding events, unable to ascertain the final outcome. 31
