Bhakti Baxter's highly anticipated exhibit, "Rompelotas," is the locally based artist's first Miami solo show in four years and includes sculpture, painting, collage, and installation-based work. The exhibit's name is a play on the Spanish term rompe pelotas, which translates to "ball breaker." Look for some ball-busting legerdemain from Baxter, whose exhibition aspires to "juggle the laws of gravity, density, and the malleability of mass while striking a balance between play and placement."
