Roswell Artist-in-Residence: Kenny Rivero

“I make paintings and drawings, assemble sculptures and installations, and above all I am invested in telling stories. The narratives are based both in reality and in fiction. In the paintings and drawings, I collapse spaces, figures, and geographies in such a way that allows for a fluidity of space and time, and a flexibility between what is real and what is not. In the sculptures and installations, I spatially manage and assemble domestic material, and various collections of my own detritus, in order to physically access the worlds that I am referencing in the two-dimensional work.”  Kenny Rivero
