Visiting Artist Talk: Justin Favela

American mixed-media artist Justin Favela is known for large-scale installations and sculptures that are created in the style of piñatas. His work speaks to the intersection of American pop culture and his Guatemalan-Mexican heritage, and reflects his own experiences as a queer person of color in the U.S.

Favela’s installations create immersive spaces that playfully dismantle institutional hierarchies, making his work just as subversive as it is accessible and fun. Favela will give an exciting artist talk associated with a new site-specific installation at the Ulrich, on view Fall 2025.

This free event starts at 6 p.m., Thursday, July 31 and takes place in McKnight Art Center 210. Everyone is welcome!
