Jaime Muñoz: (Dirty Realism: Otra Noche en L.A.)
Past exhibition
Overview
VETA by Fer Francés presents the solo exhibition of Jaime Muñoz as part of Dirty Realism: Otra Noche en L.A.
Jaime Muñoz was born in Los Angeles, and received a B.A. in Fine Art from the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) in 2016. He currently lives and works in Pomona CA. The visual language of his work is focused on aspects of identity, the commodification of labor, religion, and the critique of Latin American colonialism and Modernism. He’s inspired by concepts of “Blood Memory,” the relationship that ancestral ties have to the present day experience. He’s also inspired by the concept of “Toyoteria,” which is a working class shared experience through economic necessity around the R-series Toyota mini work trucks. A driving force in his technique is inspired by decorative aspects of commonplace everyday life and ordinary objects found in his community.
