CURATORSHIP
“In the artistic practice of Rocío Ponce (Lima, 1975), historical research and the use of images from documentary sources support the images she creates as representations of the passage of time. In the fading of colors she preserves the beauty of cyclical processes and enunciates cultural flourishing throughout history. Her large-format canvases and the subtlety of the diversity of Lima’s flora, both endemic and introduced, are calls to the urgent need for conservation of nature, in particular, of fragile ecosystems.”
