Window Seat: A Solo Show by CJ Chueca

Join us on Friday August 1, 2025 5-8pm for the opening reception of “Window Seat”. Chueca’s ceramic airplane windows transport the viewer into the liminal space of the skies. Spare titles indicating row and seat number correlate to different points of view. The windows vary in relation to the rhythms of the day– some dark mimicking a shadowy red eye flight, another orange as if illuminated in a fleeting golden moment, and yet another white as plain day. The hand-built ceramic forms are as materially fragile as the transitional experiences Chueca alludes to, drawing on tactile and visual memories of peering out an aerial porthole. Drawing on her own experiences of migration between Mexico, Peru, and the United States, Chueca’s windows blur geopolitical borders and the emotional dimension of transition.
