Derrick Velasquez: Diffuse explores the shifting boundaries of perception, where forms blend and dissolve like the horizon at dusk.
Opening Reception: Sat, May 31 from 4-6pm
Exhibition Run: May 8-Jun 21, 2025
Derrick Velasquez captures the fleeting interplay of light and material, drawing from the way our senses sharpen as darkness encroaches and distant shapes blur into the landscape.
Through layered materials, ranging from marble dust to sandstone silt, stained glass, and ornamental framing, Velasquez investigates cultural value, materiality, and the subtle gradations of color. His work challenges the distinction between clarity and obscurity, structure and fluidity, as objects interact and infiltrate one another over time.
Diffuse immerses viewers in a spatial experience where objects hover between weightlessness and solidity, reflection and shadow. The exhibition invites contemplation of perception itself, urging us to consider how proximity, material, and light shape our understanding of form and space.
