For his second solo exhibition at Reynolds Gallery, De Lara presents Pending Flowers, an exhibition of wooden sculptures that investigate his relationship with the loss and love of family members, and history as an immigrant to the United States. His incredible craftsmanship breathes life into these everyday objects including chairs and hand tools and carved plants, and begs the question of what life events are tied to these “growing” pieces. The exhibition as a whole is designed to invoke the feeling of a living room and promote a sense of comfortability and perhaps familiarity for the viewer. The overall experience of the show invites us to reflect on not only the complexity of his work, but the triumphs and trials of his story as well.
