The group exhibition at Galería Talentum in San José is hosting a new exhibition from 8 October to 30 November 2024, featuring five prominent Costa Rican artists. Each artist presents a distinct body of work across separate rooms, offering a diverse exploration of contemporary themes within Costa Rican art. The exhibition includes four artists represented by MÍRAME Fine Art, an online platform dedicated to supporting local talent.

Emilia Cantor’s Mundos Ocultos ("Hidden Worlds") presents nine paintings that blend classical techniques with modernist elements, depicting mystical female figures in dreamlike, symbolic landscapes.

In Imágenes Cosmagónicas ("Cosmogonical Images"), Milo Gonzalez draws inspiration from astrology, creating large canvases that emphasize color, form, and the interpretive nature of cosmic forces.

Sofía Ruiz’s Rastros ("Traces") series explores memory and identity, using layered textures to reflect themes of familial disconnection and emotional resonance.

Pablo Mejías debuts his first solo drawing series, La Naturaleza Erógena de la Monstruosidad ("The Erogenous Nature of Monstrosity"), focusing on life’s impermanence through monochromatic images of submerged figures and decaying animals.

Finally, Jorge Crespo’s Migrantes ("Migrants") contemplates migration as a journey of self-discovery, addressing themes of displacement and identity.

MÍRAME Fine Art is proud to support the group exhibition at Galería Talentum, celebrating the creativity and innovation of Costa Rica’s thriving art scene.

Paz Ulloa, VESICA ELIPTA, cero uno, San José.

Costa Rican sculptor Paz Ulloa, known as "White Mountain," is rapidly gaining recognition as a leading figure in contemporary art. Initially a painter, Ulloa transitioned to sculpture to explore the physicality of form and space, using materials like steel, glass, and wood. The innovative work of Paz Ulloa blur the lines between art and utility, compelling viewers to reconsider their relationship with everyday objects.

Central to her practice is a meditation on time and daily life, with pieces that introduce elements of the surreal into familiar forms. Her upcoming residency at Cero Uno in San José, starting on August 31, is a unique opportunity to experience Paz Ulloa's work in one of Costa Rica's most innovative and exciting independent art spaces.
