About the Item
In my work I explore family objects as “families” of objects—individual silver heirlooms that are related to one another in a single collection and, collectively, to the individual families that put them into domestic practice and social circulation. I’m interested in the histories and lifespans of these objects, their ability to reflect our own personal life stories and family histories, and the way they continue to connect us to one another in time and space in an increasingly digitally mediated and disconnected world.
Silver family heirlooms, such as flatware and vessels, intrigue me because they seem to have an eternal life: although they may tarnish and age beyond recognition, polishing them quickly returns their original luster. Such items pass through family generations as cherished heirlooms, survive the purgatory of antique markets, or perhaps find new life at estate sales. As their stories evolve, they form a lineage that connects us to one another, across generations and geographies.
By composing individual portraits of silver heirlooms, I explore the character evident in their inherent design and ever-changing patina. Each singular object’s form, condition, and character transform an otherwise functional object into something rich with history and artistic beauty, with the power to reflect our own life stories and family histories in the process.

By Estela Aguirre
Located in Austin, TX
A captivating abstract painting by Estela Aguirre executed in mixed media on linen. The painting features a thick, and textured application of paint and mixed materials to create a rich surface with abundant movement and energy. The atmosphere of the composition is made up of a silvery gray and earth toned mist. Warm yellow, fresh white, and glowing red gestures emerge from the picture plane. Rapid, black, elliptical lines intersect across the surface of the painting. The overall feel of the composition provides a graceful harmony.
The panting is unframed and gallery wrapped on wooden stretcher bars. Its edges are painted neatly in black. It measures 12 x 36...
