Here is a section of Ben Fulton's article

"National artists on display, such as Brooklyn-based painter Daniel Ochoa, deconstruct identity in even more radical ways. Ochoa’s large-scale self-portrait obfuscates his face in aggressive brushes of orange-red, and with undecipherable words seeping into an eye socket, a portion of the head and a corner of the chin. The effect is both placid and unsettling."
