Devin Urioste: Pray
July 26 - December 7, 2024 @ Hoffman Library
Hoffman Library, 1298 Peoria St, Aurora, CO 80011
Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art (BMoCA) and artist Devin Urioste present Pray, a site specific installation at Hoffman Library. Urioste found inspiration in the relatability within the communities and businesses in and around the library. Incorporating a mixed-media approach, Urioste utilizes proximity of varied collage material to form a unified visual whole in his work. Citing local imagery blended with his own ever-expanded photo collection, the work invokes a multifaceted and aspirational reflection of the neighborhood.
