Chapter 01
When Gravity Takes a Vacation
When you look at a painting by Cinta Vidal you’re not just glancing at an apartment, you are stepping into a world that folds in on itself.
A place where ceilings become floors, rooms morph into vertigo, and familiar domestic spaces feel like dreamscapes in motion.
Her new exhibition is entitled Inward, and is shown at Thinkspace Projects in Los Angeles. It reworks the rules of space and time with what she calls “un-gravity constructions.”

The work is moving and memorable, and we feel a sense of comfort in the scenes, despite the gravity-defying physics.
‘Vidal describes “Inward” as more than a physical distortion. It’s about interiority, the layered interiors of shared spaces and personal worlds.‘
