Velvet Notes: Conversando con Pedro Guzmán by Eugene Rodriguez presents a series of vibrant, pop-art inspired short films, sculpture, prints, and paintings that reflect on themes of artistic creativity and agency through a deeply personal lens. Rodriguez’s alter egos presented in these films examine how images, familial bonds, and cultural heritage construct identity and determine who is seen, heard, and remembered. The exhibition debuts his latest film, The Great Masquerade (2026), which discusses art, artifice, commerce, and politics in the creative industries.
