ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Imel Sierra was born in Barceloneta, Puerto Rico in 1967. He holds a Masters in Architecture from the University of Puerto Rico and has also studied in Madrid and Venice. Sierra has shown sculpture and installed public artworks across the world, including England, Australia, New York, Puerto Rico, Art Basel Switzerland, and more.
About his public artworks, he writes: “On the making of public art I am constantly on the search of ways to engage with the everyday user … Color, texture, sound, lighting or movement becomes as important as the place itself, and the response grows naturally from the various readings of the site.”

FANTASIA SUSPENDIDA
XI COURTYARD
Eleventh Hour Art is pleased to present their first courtyard installation featuring renowned artist Imel Sierra Cabrera
Fantasia Suspendida celebrates our sensory connections to memories and our ability to transport ourselves to the past.
The exhibition incorporates sounds from Cabrera’s home country of Puerto Rico and allows the viewer to sit and reflect on what connects them to home and self.
With the expansion of our gallery to our back patio, we continue to welcome the community to find a place to escape the city noise and reflect upon anything or nothing at all.
