Brandon Zech and Jessica Fuentes ruminate on all things Texas as they try to pin down a Texas aesthetic.
“When I think about Texas art, I think about exploration. When I think about Rauschenberg, I think about exploration of space — of outer space, but also of material. When I think about somebody like Kermit Oliver, I think about someone who defies logical expectations of being someone who grew up in a small Texas town... who was a postal worker in Waco but was also designing Hermès scarves.”
