Marco Emiliano Meztli Castro Asmussen is a multidisciplinary artist based in Troy, New York, working at the intersection of mark-making, drafting, poetry, and sculpture which culminate in large site-specific installations. His practice meanders between mediums to explore the relationships between memory, perception, and balance. Through these physical and drawn gestures, memca investigates the vibration that occurs across multiple spatial temporalities. He works with found objects, shadow, and sound to produce an assemblage of atmospheric experiences that confront our sense of gravity and weight. memca is a Nahuatl Mexican American who grew up in New York City and Payette, Idaho. He studied Architecture at the Irwin S. Chanin School of Architecture at The Cooper Union in New York City, and has worked on various projects with a83, Arts Letters & Numbers, Brooklyn Museum, Head of State, The Cooper Union, The Glass House, and The Museum of Modern Art.
