Steven Stallings Cardenas / Pan Para MíWednesday, October 7, 2020 – Friday, January 22, 2021“I learned sourdough bread making from a respectable book. My first month as a baker was really difficult because my dough would over-proof in my hot Los Angeles apartment. Over the course of a year, my bread began to look and taste pretty good. It wasn’t until recently that I started questioning the idea of European “artisanry,” specifically in the world of baking. In response, I made videos, photographs, and sculptures that showcase fragments of my baking process, while recognizing my Colombian heritage through colors, rhythms, and dancing. The bread I make is Colombian American sourdough bread.” – Steven Stallings CardenasABOUT THE ARTISTSteven Stallings Cardenas is a Colombian American artist, filmmaker, and musician from Provo, Utah.
