'Conversiones' (2025) by Claudia Martínez Garay acquired by Pérez Art Museum Miami, FL (US)

GRIMM is pleased to announce the recent acquisition of Claudia Martínez Garay's Conversiones (2025) by the Pérez Art Museum Miami, FL (US). The new wall-based installation by Claudia Martínez Garay (b. 1983, Ayacucho, Peru) debuted at Art Basel in the Unlimited sector, curated by Giovanni Carmine. This is the largest installation by the artist to date. 

Mural work has been part of the artist's practice for several years, with a focus on site-specific commissions. In this case, the wall painting is accompanied by sublimated prints of drawings created by the artist. The 12-meter wide installation is divided into sections, where the limits of depth and dimensions play a central role. It presents a series of imagined spaces—floors, walls, ceilings, skies, and vast voids—that, through free associations and juxtapositions, narrate stories connected to the brown body and its interactions with space, people, and culture. These narratives explore how the brown body collides with, adapts to, or resists the conditions imposed by the world.
