Historias del aire y del suelo | Stories of Air and Soil
2026-10-23 09:00 - 17:00, 2026-10-24 09:00 - 17:00, 2026-10-25 09:00 - 17:00
On view in Kapnick Hall July 11 – October 25.

Historias del aire y del suelo (Stories of Air and Soil) showcases two bodies of work by artist Pseudomero. Pseudomero’s series Trópico-Sub-Trópico (Tropical-Suptropical), highlighting palms, is a visual exploration of the ecological and social connections between Florida and Puerto Rico. The series featuring bromeliads, Bromelias en serio (Seriously Bromeliads), is a playful yet serious call to action; by celebrating this special plant and the hidden wonder that is its micro-ecosystem, we are reminded of the importance of preserving nature.

About the Artist

Puerto Rican artist Pseudomero, Ph.D., is an art activist, historian, and educator. His work has been exhibited throughout the southeastern United States and blends impressionism, graffiti, digital photography, and expressionism. Using reclaimed and repurposed materials, he specializes in drawing with a background in printmaking, murals, and mixed media. While based in Naples, he has spent the past three years exploring the Everglades collecting photos, audio and visual recordings, and sketches that inform much of this exhibition. He uses his work to spark meaningful conversations and inspire change.
