Zuania Muñiz-Meléndez: “Island Beauty”

The Opening will be on February 22nd from 6:00 to 8:00 pm.
Artist Talk on the Opening Date at 5:30 pm.
Closing date on April 5th, 2019.

In her eleven 24”x36”photographs, Zuania provides the spectator the pleasure of contemplating the intimate dialogue between nature and human beings. To do this, she juxtaposes tropical flowers found in Puerto Rico with human subjects. As part of her creative process Zuania uses the definite article in Spanish, which conveys a binomial differentiation between feminine and masculine, to select the human subject. Her photography work can be characterized as constructed, staged and stylized, with unrelenting pursuit of detail.
