This event has ended.

Elizabeth Dee presents Lucia Hierro’s new work in Mercado. In this presentation, the artists introduces a new archetype for her first solo gallery exhibition in New York. A series of soft assemblage sculptural objects on the walls and floor fill the front gallery, utilizing a broad platform of techniques that include digital media, painting, installation art, sculpture and color theory–as tools to tackle ideas of cultural and economic exclusion and privilege.

Lucia Hierro is a Dominican- American conceptual artist born and raised in Washington Heights, NYC. She lives and works in The Bronx. She received a BFA from SUNY Purchase (2010) and an MFA from Yale School of Art (2013). She has exhibited at the Bronx Museum of the Arts, IPCNY (in the traveling group exhibition “Black Pulp”), and had a recent solo at the Sugar Hill Children’s Museum of Art and Storytelling. Hierro was included in the 2017 inaugural edition of Selections by Larry Ossei-Mensah at Elizabeth Dee. Artists’ residencies include Fountainhead Residency, The Bronx Museum of the Arts Artist in the Marketplace program, Yaddo, and the Red Bull House of Art in Detroit.
