Queue Magazine is pleased to present an exclusive live interview hosted by Q Mag founder and independent curator Catherine Camargo with Tunnel Projects founder and artist Luna Palazzolo Daboul at Bakehouse Art Complex. The discussion will explore Luna Palazzolo's multidisciplinary artwork and her contributions to the emerging Miami art scene through her project space/artist studios in Little Havana, FL, Tunnel Projects. The audience will also have the opportunity to ask Luna questions about her practice. This is the first live session of Queue Magazine's intimate interviews with Miami-based artists, and we look forward to seeing you there.
Luna Palazozolo-Daboul
Born in Mar del Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina, to middle eastern and Italian parents, Luna Palazzolo is a multidisciplinary artist who later relocated to Miami at the age of 20. While actively contributing to the local art community, they have exhibited their works in various locations, including Buenos Aires, Japan, Canada, Mexico, and the United States.Luna's interests in psychology, which they studied at Kennedy University in Buenos Aires, and materiality, which they frequently explore through their profession in restoration and fabrication, heavily influence their self-taught artistic practice. Their work is a reflection of their surroundings and can be described as iconoclastic, as they often tackle themes of resistance, empowerment, and a critical outlook on the growing technocratic society. Luna is also the Co-founder of the artist-led initiative aimed to produce and manage exhibiting opportunities beyond the institutional realm,Tunnel Projects. Tunnel is a 250 square ft underground project space/artist studios located at El Capiro,a shopping plaza from the 1980s in Little Havana.
