The museum says:

“Lisa Alvarado’s free-hanging paintings expand into the realms of installation, textile, sound and performance. Working in acrylic on unstretched canvas, Alvarado creates meditative, patterned works that evoke Mesoamerican weavings and other non-Western traditions of abstraction. In ‘Lisa Alvarado / MATRIX 192 / Spinning Echo,’ the Chicago-based, San Antonio-born artist transforms the gallery with an installation of new paintings, sound, and site-specific floor sculptures, creating an immersive multisensory experience of what the artist calls her ‘vibrational aesthetic.”’
