"Disaster Distilled captures the chaotic energy of my workspace and shows how all these materials then get reduced and boiled down into these intricate, delicate works. I often think of the painter Francis Baco in his studio and how there was a beauty of madness." Curtis Talwst Santiago

The work of Canadian-Trinidadian artist Curtis “Talwst” Santiago incorporates mixed-media and performance practices. He is currently engaged in an ongoing series of miniature dioramas in reclaimed ring boxes that highlight absent or misinterpreted narratives, revealing the non-linear complexities of history and exploring intercultural relationships.
