#Kenya mori series#
Along with Murillo’s series of paintings, MAM Project 029: Oscar Murillo, will present the outcome of this collaboration and a selection of canvases from other countries, including Colombia, India, China, the United States, Lebanon, and Kenya. Since September 2020, Frequencies project has been ongoing in four schools in the Minato Ward in Tokyo.
As the name Frequencies suggests, these canvases capture the complexity of each student’s unbound forms of expression through conscious and unconscious mark making. Students of this age group live through a profound physical and psychological transformation. The project reaches out to schools to affix raw canvases onto classroom desks over a period of several months, encouraging students from age 10 to 16 to cover them freely with their own drawings and marks.
This exhibition presents Frequencies (2013-), an international project initiated by Murillo and political scientist Clara Dublanc. All of the his diverse works can be seen to constitute a sustained and evolving investigation of notions of community, informed by cross-cultural personal ties, as well as the constant transnational movement that has become integral to Murillo’s practice. Oscar Murillo (born 1986 in La Paila, Colombia) is known for his dynamic and multidisciplinary artistic practice that incorporates painting, drawing, print-making, books, sculpture, video, installations, live events, and collaborative projects.
