Currently, Daniella Pozo is thinking about landfills, pieces of paper, bindings, silhouettes. In her process, she looks to archives for documentation of local architecture and U.S. history while translating these ideas into collage, installations, and books of different sizes. As Daniella figures out what to say about her work aesthetically and politically, she hopes you will lean into abstraction.
