Hi and Hello World | Main Gallery

APIA ART | Carolina Garcia

Her exploration of human emotions in relation to inclusion and what it takes to achieve it, it’s what primarily drives her work. Taking it to diverse forms of expression, all deeply rooted in the message and the need to create spaces to talk about it and all it conveys.
Art is her language, and over a decade ago, She discovered that it was her son’s too. He has autism, and this was her way into his world as she discovered she could “talk” to him via drawings and paintings.
Apia enjoys working in figuration and abstraction to allow an expansive creative process. She works hard to achieve the versatility that allows her to transit through different mediums seamlessly. Garcia sees it as a must-have for her practice to address a variety of spaces in which inclusion is lacking.
Intentionally engaging with her immediate environment and drawing on her inner strength and energy to give audiences a space to rest in patience and indulge in spending conscious time with their thoughts and experiences. Her goal is to contribute through my work to a more inclusive society by helping guide a way into openness to inclusion by accepting our fragilities and flaws.
