Juventino Aranda: Pocket Full of Posies

Pocket Full of Posies includes sculptural and wall-hung works that are created through a variety of technical processes to communicate the essence of Aranda’s (re)appropriated source material, which spans Little Golden books and Pendleton blankets to panaderia calendars and loteria cards. Using shifts in scale and context to estrange and magnify the significance of these objects, Aranda explores the subtle ways in which ideology is communicated through—and belief systems form around—seemingly mundane aspects of the material world.
