ArtBCo Presents a Winter Hideaway in Wynwood to Reflect Cuban Artist's Vision of Struggle and Refuge
Wynwood Miami, FL (PRWEB) November 30, 2015 -- S'nowMiami, a winter-inspired-installation by Arturo Cuenca, presented by ArtBCo, will give Miami Art Week guests a blank canvas space to decompress and reflect in between the numerous fairs and exhibitions from December 3-6, from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. daily at 360Spaces located at 220 N.W. 27th Street, Miami.
Featured artist Arturo Cuenca parallels the experience of S'nowMiami with his life and the life of many other immigrants living in the United States. It is a place of refuge where all guests can retreat and reflect during their busy Art Week schedules.
“This is the country of exiles and immigrants who’ve come in search of freedom and the opportunity for a better life. Snow reflects the beauty of what can be difficult,” said the Cuban-born-artist, Cuenca.
The installation depicts the hardships immigrants face in the pursuit of freedom when they come to the United States. Much like plowing through snow during harsh Northern winters, foreigners come to America and experience harsh realities and cold oppositions. Yet, they continue to layer themselves with dignity, hard work and resilience to weather the storms of this new life.
S'nowMiami is one of ArtBCo's series of artist exhibitions called Interlude, which is scheduled to take place at multiple art fairs around the world next year, that coincides with the soon-to-launch app’s awareness campaign showcasing the synergies between art and advanced mobile technologies.
Admission to S'nowMiami is complimentary. For more information, please email press(at)ArtBCo(dot)com.
