Santa Fe Reporter: Telles About It
8/27/2020
Telles returns to Santa Fe for Convergence: Of Time and Place, a new solo show at the Canyon Road space based both in his collaborative efforts as an artist, his ingrained memories and a contemporary take on the role of the santero. If you didn't know, santeros create art works based on saints, and Telles' particular brand pulls from hundreds of years of tradition while adding brighter colors, an almost political leaning and, hopefully, a little bit of deconstructing history.
