Join us for the Opening Reception for Viajero del Tiempo/Time Traveler, a solo exhibition of first-generation Colombian-American artist Carolyn Castaño.
Born, raised, and educated in California, Castaño’s work reflects her experience as the daughter of immigrants—iterative, interdisciplinary—moving drawings and paintings from the two-dimensional flatness of paper or canvas to digitally printed fabric, to videos that incorporate animated drawings, to furniture pieces, to nail decals featured within the larger context of a video.
In Viajero del Tiempo/Time Traveler, Castaño draws on her late father’s photographic archive—comprising 4,000 photographs, films, and videos—to consider the fragility and ephemerality of memory and identity. The pictures in the exhibition are juxtaposed next to drawings of the landscape (inspired by Alexander von Humboldt’s landscapes and botanical studies) to consider how the land figures in the trajectory and memory of the migrant/immigrant.
Complementing Castaño’s work, the PassageWay will feature photographs by young women from the Las Fotos Project, an organization that elevates the voices of teenage girls and gender-expansive youth from communities of color through photography and mentoring.
Viajero del Tiempo/Time Traveler is curated by Ara and Anahid Oshagan and will be on view from November 15, 2025 - February 1, 2026.
