Echoes of Home: Marlon Portales

Sublime Art

Have you even seen a painting where the oil was applied on the back of the canvas? Marlon Portales' latest exhibition 'Poems of Nature' in Miami's Pan American Art Projects Gallery featured works that did just this, showing both what’s within and what we put out to the world. Soft and sensual, these works reflect on the isolation and memory that comes with immigration.

Marlon is a multidisciplinary artist based in Miami, Florida, who graduated with honours from the prestigious Instituto Superior de Arte (ISA) in Havana in 2018. His unique and captivating works have been featured in numerous group and solo exhibitions across the globe, including Spain, Germany, Italy, Panama, the United States, and Cuba. This episode was produced in collaboration with Pan American Art Projects.
