In the entryway of anonymous gallery, a wall is activated by a single artwork of an emerging artist or art collective. This presentation will run alongside the current exhibition schedule at the gallery, and will remain visible for one month.

This presentation aptly called first impression, will engage our audience and the general public with a single work on view. first impression, aims to share knowledge and insight of carefully considered artists outside of our gallery roster, while also focusing on a need for diverse representation of artists.

Armando Nin paraphrases different preceding genres, such as photography, painting, and assembling found objects, and plays with them to identify new capacities. The focus of his multifaceted body of work is about generating a domain for spirited experimentation in which new images can arise, from what is typically considered the “mundane”. Nin’s recent development of work utilizes materials such as etch-bath, latex, layout fluid, and soot from smoke, to be elevated to the same importance as oil or acrylics.
