Honduras-born, New York-based artist Francisco Alvarado-Juárez is presenting Aqua-Terra / Terra-Aqua, an interactive installation, at the Denver Art Museum. The installation is on view since last Summer and will remain open through April 2016. For his project, Alvarado-Juárez transformed one of the museum's hallways, the Precourt Discovery Hall, into a welcoming space for visitors, families in particular. The installation uses paper recycled from thousands of supermarket bags, hand painted and cut to create a forest of colors where visitors can search for and find numerous camouflaged insects. Alvarado-Juárez worked on the installation in collaboration with local community groups. The space includes video projections, nature sounds, and a worktable for visitors of all ages to create images that can be integrated into the work. Francisco Alvarado-Juárez is a Honduran-American artist with a multidisciplinary focus, working in photography, painting, installation, video, drawing, and sound art. He has lived in the United States since 1965. Alvarado-Juárez studied literature and history and holds a Bachelor of Arts Degree (1973) and a Master's Degree in Fine Arts (1993).
