Entre Dos Palmas
Angélica Maria Millán Lozano + Laura Camila Medina

July 05, 2024 — August 11, 2024

Fuller Rosen Gallery is excited to announce the opening of Entre Dos Palmas, an exhibition of new and recent work by Angélica Maria Millán Lozano + Laura Camila Medina. In Entre Dos Palmas, Millán Lozano and Medina deconstruct the hybridized culturescapes of Colombian-Floridian culture; where Disney exists in your backyard and mementos of home are branded with artificiality.

Join us for an opening reception on First Friday, July 05 from 6-9 pm.


Angélica Maria Millán Lozano + Laura Camila Medina, 2024

An expansion and immersion of time and place, Entre Dos Palmas takes viewers on a journey from the shadowy mountains of Bogotá, Colombia to the sea level shopping plazas of Orlando, Florida. Using the icon of the palm tree as a misnomer, Millán Lozano and Medina intermix their analogous upbringings — both artists were born in Colombia and relocated to Florida as children —into their own fantastical composites of past, present, and future. Through the dreamy, nostalgic cycle of reverse culture shock, Millán Lozano and Medina combat the monolithic assimilation machine by imbuing Entre Dos Palmas with counterfeit and DIY aesthetics.

Angélica Maria Millán Lozano, Surcos, 2021

With her unique use of distressed fabrics, Angélica Maria Millán Lozano crafts mesmerizing abstract and figurative compositions that challenge the social injustices faced by migrant families, especially Latina women. Her art is a powerful response to the political turmoil of her homeland, weaving her personal experiences into themes of familiarity, absurdity, foreignness, and fear. Each piece is a testament to resilience, carefully chosen from textiles that have lived through their own stories of hardship. These fabrics embody narratives of pain and survival, mirroring the struggles of Latin American women. By elevating these materials, often relegated to “women's work” in Latinx households, Millán Lozano restores their agency and meaning, transforming them into poignant symbols of strength and endurance.

Inspired by her transnational experiences between Bogotá and Orlando, Laura Camila Medina utilizes a unique blend of painting, sculpture, and video collage to explore memory, identity, and belonging. Her practice incorporates elements of magical realism and aims to address themes of cultural and national identity, gender, and personal memory. Step into a realm of bio-mythographical symbols, vibrant imagery from Colombian and US pop culture, and mesmerizing non-linear animation. Medina’s unique approach brings to life an internal landscape where memories are perpetually reconstructed — a powerful way to connect geographical distance with emotional closeness, creating a sense of belonging and continuity amidst displacement.




Angélica Maria Millán Lozano (b. 1989, she/her) is an artist from Bogotá, Colombia currently based in Brooklyn, New York. She received her MFA in Visual Studies at Pacific Northwest College of Art. Lozano has been a resident at the Bemis Center, Ox Bow School of Art, ACRE Residency, among others. She has shown nationally at Ortega y Gasset Projects, Equity Gallery in New York, NY, Jacob Lawrence Gallery in Seattle, Washington, Oregon Center for Contemporary Art, and Nationale in Portland, Oregon. Entre Dos Palmas is Millán Lozano’s third exhibition at Fuller Rosen Gallery.




Laura Camila Medina (b. 1995, she/her) is an interdisciplinary artist born in Bogotá, Colombia. Her practice is deeply inspired by the kisses between mountains and sky of her birthplace intertwined with the thematic fantasy-scape and migrant microcosms of Orlando, FL. Her work has been exhibited at Fuller Rosen Gallery, the Portland Art Museum, Nationale, and with the Nat Turner Project. She was awarded the AICAD Post-Graduate Teaching Fellowship, the Dean’s Travel Grant and CCAM Fellowship at Yale University, Individual Artist Fellowship from the Oregon Arts Commission, New Media Fellowship at Open Signal, and various artist residencies including: the Living School of Art, ACRE, and Centrum.

Alongside Angela Saenz, she is part of Maracuya con Leche, a collaborative project that encourages artists to participate in creative exchange with their community. Together they were the IPRC Artists & Writers in Residence in 2020, where they completed two community mural projects, and were invited to the Caldera Artist Residency in 2022. She is represented by Nationale in Portland, OR. Medina earned her BFA at the Pacific Northwest College of Art and an MFA in Painting and Printmaking from Yale University.
