Eamon Ore-Giron (b. 1973, Tucson, AZ; lives in Los Angeles, CA) creates paintings, videos, and music that are informed by his experiences living across multiple locations, including Los Angeles, Mexico, Peru, and Tucson. This mosaic, which the artist created especially for the 2025 Art Auction, is part of a decade-long, ongoing series of the same name. Hinting at the visual language of astral calendars, celestial bodies, and architecture, it displays one of the hallmarks of Ore-Giron's practice: the process of cultural transmutation, or the migration of ideas, histories, and aesthetics across place and time. Solo exhibitions of his work have been presented by the Contemporary Austin; Museum of Contemporary Art Denver; Anderson Collection at Stanford University, Palo Alto, CA; and The Brick, Los Angeles. His work has also been featured in the 2024 Whitney Biennial, Even Better Than the Real Thing, and Made in L.A. 2018.
