Juan puts a twist to traditional images, in this case a Catholic cherub, and inserts them into their own fantasy. Instead of an expansive sky, the cherub is shrouded in greenery that, like jungles, symbolizes a safe haven from Juan's personal memories.
Born in Colombia / Works in Chicago
Floating from Colombia, Texas, and now Chicago, Juan creates their own mythologies from narratives they encountered in these places - from cowboys in popular culture to the jungle that remains fond in their childhood memory. When placed in an alien setting like the jungle, cowboys no longer have the macho, confident air but look like tragic heroes and the clash between soccer players become more erotic than violent.
