raul de nieves pioneer works

Raúl de Nieves has transformed the industrial architecture of Pioneer Works in Red Hook into a luminous sanctuary through his solo exhibition, "In Light of Innocence." The installation features 50 handcrafted faux stained-glass panels made from acetate and aluminum tape, replacing traditional religious iconography with symbols from tarot, Mexican folklore, and personal text. The centerpiece is a large light box featuring a skeleton that symbolizes transformation and renewal rather than death.

pioneer works choke hole performance

At Brooklyn's Pioneer Works, a drag queen professional wrestling event called Choke Hole, part of artist Raúl de Nieves's exhibition, was disrupted when audience member and performer Chiquitita stormed the stage. She objected to a skit that made light of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) deportations, shouting that 'ICE is not entertainment!' and hurling the microphone into a video screen. The performance, titled ARMAGEDDON, featured an alien queen plot involving nuclear codes and ICE, and Choke Hole later apologized, removing the segment from subsequent shows.
