About
Roberto Lugo: Put Yourself In The Picture
Known for his mastery of ceramics, Lugo's artworks consist of vessels that incorporate elements from traditional European and Asian decorative arts, combined with iconography derived from Afro-Latino heritage and Hip Hop culture. "Put Yourself in the Picture," Roberto Lugo's first monumental sculpture in milled foam, was created on-site during his residency. Visitors have the opportunity to walk through the vessel using a viewing platform, enhancing their interactive experience. Additionally, the gallery features a drop-in maker space where visitors can engage with clay and explore its materiality
This significant artwork was made possible through a collaboration with The Seward Johnson Atelier and the Digital Atelier, providing Lugo with a new avenue for artistic expression on a scale that would be challenging to achieve with traditional clay techniques.
