SOLO SHOW

1999   Thelma Garcia, INTIMIDAD Y DISTANCIA.
          Leonora Vega Gallery. New York, NY

"Garcia provides the viewer with a voyeuristic window to a scene in which not all the elements are given away to the viewer. Through a careful way of showing only the essential elements and often maintaining the question of what is being seen, Garcia's work is a provoking reflection on issues of intimacy, voyeurism, and daily life."
