In this exhibit, Spanish photographer Juan Carlos Vélaz offer the public a journey across the Dominican Republic, recounting their three year expedition exploring the country’s coastline, forests, hills, and other natural enclaves. The artists’ work is characterized by wide panoramas of the biodiversity present throughout the Dominican Republic. Considering natural spaces to be as necessary to humans as the oxygen they breathe, Vélaz and Ozuna encourage us to visit the areas they photographed and protect them from degradation.

The ReCrearte program is partnering with other Dominican non-profit organizations (Soy Ciclista Urbano, Concienciartrd) to promote art recycling and showcase its benefits in a unique joint exhibition! The ReCrearte recycled art workshops, which are taught by Bertha Santana, seek to raise awareness of the three principles of solid waste management: reduce, reuse, and recycle. Teaching Dominicans how to turn wood, plastic, and other waste materials into decorative objects of economic value, the workshops also empower local communities.
We thank our partners, sponsors, collaborators and friends.
