Yvette Mayorga's art cleverly blends a candy-coated aesthetic with unsettling themes, delving into nostalgia, pop culture, and the complexities of the immigrant experience.
Her first solo exhibition in Mexico, La Jaula de Oro, showcases works that look deceptively sweet but reveal deeper realities through unsettling details and powerful symbolism.
Mayorga taps into vanitas painting traditions, reflecting on life’s fragility and the immigrant experience with visual metaphors that juxtapose beauty with harsh truths.
The exhibition's standout pieces use vibrant, playful materials to distract from the underlying themes of capitalist excess and the unrelenting passage of time.
