For this exhibition, Perez has created a set of architectural paintings that feature the UnitedStates Embassy buildings scattered across the world. Born from frustrations with the country’s recent presidential election, the artist seeks to unpack the collective identity that these physical structures imply. More specifically, Perez questions how the contemporary political landscape has narrowed our relationships with these buildings. His meditation portrays the beacons of hope and sanctuaries that they once were and security bunkers that they have become.
