Caesar Alzate Jr. makes Objects which are defined simultaneously as painting and sculpture, made from acrylic paint layered hundreds (if not thousands) of times with a heat process that is essential to his process but also embodies the notion of identity as that of ‘the other’ and ‘the fear of the other’ in a body of work that metaphorically attacks discrimination by categorically justifying difference. The latest series is rendered completely in red, reflecting frustration and anger over anti-immigrant policies at constant risk of passing into law, but fashioned with a serenity that offers a promise of resolution through a concentration of purpose.

The Object is a thing that assimilates traits of painting and sculpture. As a thing of contemplation and self-reflection it breaks down the walls of the established definition that separates each category.
