From the museum: Light Cones—a term used to express the path a flash of light travels through spacetime—presents Mexican artist Tatiana Ortiz-Rubio’s long-held interest in the complexities of time. Working in charcoal and graphite, the artist’s series of cloud sketches and murals delve into the human experience of time and its contrasting, yet indivisible, philosophical, scientific, and spiritual notions. In a nod to Jorge Luis Borges’ Clouds I sonnet, “We are the ones who drift away. The host / Of evening clouds dispersing in the west / Is our very image. . . ,” Ortiz-Rubio composes immersive, nebulous scenes to explore the instant: the small window of time we call the present, and the space between transitions.

She received her MFA from the New York Academy of Art and BA in art history and visual arts at the University of San Diego.
