"Daniela Oliver de Portillo’s first solo exhibition, So Marvelous, De Nuevo Florecer, at Ruiz-Healy Art presents an array of terracotta vases with sculpted cyanotype floral bouquets, along with a suite of framed, editioned cyanotype prints. Expository wall labels speak openly about the conflicting hopes, dreams, demands, and desires for help and recognition in balancing the daily demands of motherhood with a blossoming artistic sensibility. Oliver de Portillo lightheartedly describes her process as confoundingly complicated, like motherhood, with the process largely invisible in its elegant results." -Nicholas Frank
