Sugar Hill Children’s Museum of Art and Storytelling

For “Mermaids in The Basement”, C.J. Chueca transforms the gallery into a metaphorical space where the different works on display take their titles from poems related to water, intertwining into an immersive installation. The title of the exhibition, taken from a poem by Emily Dickinson, suggests a displacement from a natural place, like the sea or any of our own ecosystems, to an urban environment.
