Queerteñx is intimately tied to the México/United States border aesthetically, historically, geographically, symbolically, visually, and conceptually. In this exhibition, the aesthetic achievements of José Villalobos and Salvador de la Torre converge to theoretically queer citizenship and problematize machismo from a queer/trans axis nepantleando in diaspora, where queer is a site of infinite possibility. Visually articulated throughout this exhibition is an aesthetic provocation upon machismo, hetero-patriarchy, and cis-supremacy that challenges inherent social value through Queerteñx culture.

In the United States today there are 93 occupations in which20% or more of workers are immigrants. These high-immigrantoccupations are primarily, lower-wage jobs that requirerelatively little formal education. Latinx individualsmake up 83.5% of this particular labor force.

Knowledge Bennett?s latest body of work "Black Series" marks an evolution from his deep interest in socio-political pop-art based subject matters. It gives way to an introspective yet conceptual concern marked by abstraction and minimalism; one that is deeply rooted in the collective consciousness and the infinite capabilities of thy self. Each artwork within this series provides a new perspective, an intimate moment of respite in which color is free from object and becomes subject itself.
