Behind the scenes of the installation of the Pepe Mar: Myth and Magic exhibition at the Tampa Museum of Art.

Pepe Mar: Myth and Magic represents the first survey of Pepe Mar’s art and highlights 15-years of the artist’s practice, from 2006 to 2023. Each work is uniquely different yet incorporates Mar’s signature materials—such as paper cut-outs from magazines, catalogues, and books, decorative textile motifs, clay vessels and figurines, as well as found objects discovered by the artist in shops and thrift stores throughout the world.

*All projects featured have been worked hands-on by Studio 7’s founder Marzuwq Bholai in his professional experiences
