“As the mother of a new baby, the fellowship helped cover the cost of childcare,” giving 2021 Latinx Artist Fellow Carolina Cayedo (@lacaycedo) the means over the last year to expand her studio staff and continue work on art that inspires more imaginative perspectives. Over 11 feet wide, featuring colored pencil on paper, her work commissioned by the BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art “Tyne Catchment” calls on audiences to ask what unsustainable growth in the context of capitalism looks like. For Cayedo, extra time and resources mean the chance to deliver an important message: “The transition to a more just world will not be achieved solely through legal means, but through visual, cultural, and magical healing.” -- #LatinxArtistFellowship #latinxart #contemporaryart #art #artists #arthistory #museums @veralistcenter @balticgateshead @creative_capital @harpofoundation @icaboston @ballroommarfa @mcachicago @oxyarts @uscroski @uscalumni @uniandes @fordfoundation @nyfacurrent @USLAForum #hispanicheritagemonth
