Nanibah Chacon Currents

UTPB

Exhibition by Nanibah Chacon, CURRENTS, showcases a body of work made around the study of water as abstract drawings and string installations.The work began with questioning the personal investment in water conservation movements and politics. For one month, Nanibah did several studies of water using ink and paper. The work examines the line as language to understand the simplest formations of water and movement, investing time to understand its nature and allowing that process to become a point of growth and personal transformation.
