Bathed in sunshine in San Leandro, CA, Juan Carlos Quintana welcomed the SEE(d) Creative Network into his backyard studio in June 2025 to mingle, enjoy summer-inspired bites and wines, and, most importantly, dive into conversation about his in-depth art practice.
Quintana’s work layers sharp visual commentary, satirical edge, and multi-layered techniques. From large-scale paintings confronting Louisiana’s legacy of plantations and petrochemical industries, to boxed monotype sets, homages to Cuban artists, and intricate collages, his practice feels both urgent and alive. SEE(d) was honored to gather in community—witnessing, sharing stories, and appreciating what Juan Carlos’ art does best: communicate with vibrant intention and integrity.
