chashama is pleased to announce Art in a Valise, a group exhibition curated by L’Escargot Noir at chashama 112. Art in a Valise plays with the concept of creating art for transport, touching on ideas of the globalization of the art world along with ways the artists consider space in their creative process. Each piece of work is a variation on how to play with size and compatibility of objects in each artist’s distinct style.

Beyond the idea of simply creating a show of work that is transportable and expands the idea of how different forms of art may be created, molded and transported L’Escargot Noir is connecting this concept to the purpose of the group themselves, which is to form international collaborations with other groups of artists internationally. L’Escargot Noir hopes to evolve this concept and invite collaborating artists to take part in upcoming shows in Paris and/or Mexico City.
