March 1- March 29, 2025 Exhibitions

Box 13 ArtSpace is pleased to present, On the Backroads, a survey of works by Jonas Criscoe exploring the aesthetics of detritus and decay through the lens of surface, material and form. It looks to the rural backroads of Texas for inspiration, the forgotten towns, the faded facades of old buildings and the natural cycles of growth, decay, and renewal. Back BOX gallery we show artist Alexandria Canchola and their work Fruits of Their Labor explores the dynamic contrast between two extraordinary women who shaped me: my Cuban grandmother and my Mexican-American aunt, Aunt Carrie. By examining our distinct yet interconnected lives, this body of work illuminates how their experiences inform my understanding of identity, resilience, and a woman’s place in the world. In the Window BOX gallery Cosmic Duality by Cassie Gnehm showcases two oil and acrylic paintings that explore the connections between creation, transformation, and the infinite cosmos. Inspired by The Virgin of the Rocks and personal imagery, the works feature exaggerated hands cradling celestial orbs, symbolizing the delicate balance of life and death. Finally Mateo Gutiérrez is presenting several large scale hand-embroidered artworks depicting images of people coming across the US-Mexico border juxtaposed with images of people in the aftermath shootings. The title of the exhibition is It’s the End of the World As We Know It, and will be presented in the Upstairs Box gallery.
The exhibitions continue through March 29, 2025. An Opening Reception will be held on Friday February 28, 2025 6pm to 9pm at BOX 13 ArtSpace, 6700 Harrisburg, Houston, TX 77011.
