Angelica Raquel: Mystic Threads

McNay Art Museum
San Antonio, Texas
January 29–July 5, 2026

Rooted in fiber, folklore and family storytelling, Angelica Raquel: Mystic Threads explores the space where reality and imagination intersect. The solo exhibition by San Antonio-based multidisciplinary artist Angelica Raquel will showcase 18 works, including fiber sculptures, paintings and immersive installations. Raquel conjures a visual world of childhood memories, dreams, urban legends and ancestral lore drawn from her upbringing in Laredo, Texas. Human-animal hybrids appear, while sculptural figures invite viewers in with soft-felted bodies, adorned surfaces and vivid colors.
