About the artist:
Daniel Barragán’s paintings, sculptures, and artifacts concern the detection of cultural wealth and cultural mobility. With focus on the poetic reflection of the regional environment of the American Southwest, Barragan has developed a distinct navigation of the physicality of craft traditions that functions to compartmentalize and preserve his own lived experiences. He is committed to the detection and description of the shape of time. He transposes, reduces, and composes a facsimile that will elicit recognition all while conveying a new perception of the subject.
Barragán was born in 1988 in El Paso, TX, and currently lives and works in Brooklyn, NY. He has exhibited in group shows throughout the United States, most recently at Barranguets Arts in Easton CT (2022). Barragán was a Smack Mellon - Hot Pick (2020) and was the recipient of the Stutzman Family Foundation Fellowship (2019). He received a BFA (2013) and an MFA (2019) from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York.
