A Conversation with Artists Marianela de la Hoz and Marc Urselli

Join us for a special joint lecture with Marianela de la Hoz and Marc Urselli, currently featured in "Palpitations" at The San Diego Museum of Art, as they explore the powerful intersection of visual art and sound.

In this immersive exhibition, de la Hoz’s psychologically charged imagery—rendered directly onto speaker cones—forms the conceptual and visual core of the installation, while Urselli’s original sound compositions activate the works through vibration and resonance, creating a multi-sensory experience that engages themes of memory, identity, duality, and the visceral rhythm of the human heartbeat. A three-time Grammy Award–winning and seven-time Grammy-nominated audio engineer and composer, Urselli brings his celebrated expertise to a dialogue that is equally shaped by de la Hoz’s distinctive visual language and narrative depth. This conversation offers a rare opportunity to hear both artists discuss their creative processes and the dynamic exchange that defines this innovative collaboration.
