About

WERC Alvarez is based in Brooklyn. Werc’s practice exists at the intersection of public art, cultural identity, and environmental consciousness. Werc investigates public art as a place for spiritual practice, bringing into play conceptual mythical figures and reimagining our connection to nature and ancestral knowledge. Revealing the place in between worlds, Werc draws from Mesoamerican wisdom that empowers our connections to the transcendental aspects of our existence, exploring themes of resilience, migration, and interconnectedness.
