Human-crafted. AI-refined.

Willa Wasserman
B.1990, American

Willa Wasserman’s paintings unfold in a state of continuous emergence, weaving figuration with material experimentation to evoke dreamlike atmospheres. Her forms—at times loose, translucent, or barely manifest—are shaped by the subtle interplay of texture, light, and surface, placing transformation itself at the core of her visual language. She masterfully bridges histories of classical painting and material culture with contemporary expressions of queerness, working on substrates that range from linen to polished bronze and copper. Her method often harnesses chemical processes—linseed oils aging, silverpoints oxidizing, caustic reagents patinating metals—imbuing her works with a delicate, evolving radiance that mirrors their thematic depth. Wasserman’s compositions conjure tender, spectral silhouettes that articulate questions of intimacy, selfhood, and metamorphosis. Ethereal gestures and shimmering surfaces become metaphors for identity in flux—fleeting, transient, and perpetually in formation. Through this blend of techniques and sensibilities, her paintings become poetic sites of longing and transformation, inviting viewers to inhabit spaces where form dissolves into memory, and where being is always becoming. ...

Instituto de Visión
Bogotá, New York City

Instituto de Vision is a Bogotá and New York based gallery for conceptual practices. Their mission is to investigate conceptual discourses that have been neglected by the official Latin American art canon. They have recovered important estates from the Latin American art of the mid century and continue to research the most enigmatic oeuvres of the region. Through a parallel program, they represent some of the most relevant contemporary practices from Colombia, Chile, North America, Venezuela, and others. Directed by three women, Instituto de Vision gives special attention to female voices, queer theories, environmental activism, the conflicts of migration, and other critical positions that challenge the established order. Using the international art scene as a platform, they are committed to give visibility and expand the work of artists that reveal critical realities and raise important questions for these contemporary subjects. ...
