Lucia’s practice, which includes sculpture, textile art, digital media and installation, confronts twenty-first century capitalism through an intersectional lens. Her artwork is influenced by the pop art of Andy Warhol and the famous oversized sculptures of everyday objects by Claes Oldenburg.

Carvalho Park:
CARVALHO PARK’s inaugural edition of the fair will present three gallery artists who have been strongly supported by Texas collections to date. New York-based sculptor and installation artist, Rachel Mica Weiss will show both fiber work and hand-carved alabaster and marble sculptures — the symbiotic dyad of her practice. Berlin-based artist, Maximilian Rödel’s enveloping and ungraspable color field paintings offer a glimpse of the human condition, as intimate as they are sublime. In Paris-based artist Guillaume Linard Osorio’s paintings on polycarbonate, voids become veils of complex crystalline fields of color, oscillating between the unintentional stain and the perfect trace.
Founder Jennifer Carvalho was born in Dallas, making the gallery’s participation in the fair particularly meaningful. She says, “I’ve always been taken by the interconnectedness of the Dallas-Fort Worth cultural players, and the dedication, enthusiasm, and honed perspective by which collections are created and work to support some of the nation’s leading art institutions — it’s a rare thing. All three artists are in exciting moments in their careers, as they ascend from emerging to mid-career, ushered by institutional exhibitions and acquisitions. Their practices inherently align with the collecting pursuits I’ve experienced among Texas collectors. I am so genuinely thrilled for our Dallas Art Fair debut.”
