Shirley Villavicencio Pizango - A Tear For Power

In A Tear for Power, Villavicencio Pizango presents a new body of work exploring the fragile boundary between self-image and self-absorption. Through intimate portraits and emotionally charged compositions, the exhibition approaches narcissism not simply as vanity, but as a vulnerable desire for recognition, control, and love.
Drawing from personal memory, cultural symbolism, and everyday encounters, the artist creates paintings that balance tenderness with confrontation. In A Tear for Power, vulnerability and power become inseparable, revealing the emotional complexity that lies beneath the surface of identity.
