Join us on Saturday June 25 from 4-6 pm for an artist talk with Carlos Santiago about his solo show Thinking of Summer in Winter, on view at the newly reopened 13FOREST Gallery through July 15.
Thinking of Summer in Winter began as a series of oil pastel drawings that Carlos Santiago made in Puerto Rico in early 2022. Santiago had returned to Caguas for the first time since 2019, his annual trips to reunite with his family put on hold during the height of the pandemic. Santiago experienced some culture shock returning to Puerto Rico, his home made unfamiliar by his long absence. Feeling as though he had forgotten parts of his culture, Santiago had the powerful experience of rediscovering where he grew up by making oil pastel drawings of his family's tropical garden.
