Art Vessel
In 2013, Director Mateo Vengoechea and Producer Gabriel “GG” Gimenez embarked on a project to capture Miami's burgeoning art scene. They began documenting the city’s artistic evolution by interviewing local talent and covering key events like Miami Art Week, famously known as “Art Basel.”
As Miami transformed into a global art hub, "Art Vessel" delved into this cultural revolution, showcasing both emerging and established artists. The documentary expanded its scope to New York City, gathering insights from its art community on Miami’s rapid rise.
Featuring interviews with prominent figures such as Miami’s Gabriel “GG” Gimenez, New York designer Jeff Staple, IV Gallery and Digital Nativ founder Vincent Harrison, and muralist Elio Mercado, "Art Vessel" highlights the dynamic interplay between these vibrant art scenes.
This compelling exploration of Miami's artistic ascent earned "Art Vessel" the 2018 Suncoast Regional Emmy Award for Short Documentary.
