Everything is Energy – Jorge Mendoza – Nest Murals Solo Art Exhibition

About the Event

Opening May 2, 2025, running through September 5, 2025
San Diego, CA —

Everything is energy.

Born in Mexico City (CDMX) and raised in Santa Cruz, California, Jorge Mendoza is a multidisciplinary artist whose work spans borders and mediums. Over the past 12 years, he has lived and worked in San Diego and Tijuana, expanding his artistic practice through screen printing, woodcuts, ceramics, installation, sign painting, murals, photography, art organizing, and curating. As a largely self-taught artist, Jorge embraces exploration, experimentation, and lifelong learning, continuously evolving through travel and new creative experiences.

His artistic reach extends from San Francisco to Todos Santos, Baja California, and throughout Mexico City. His latest exhibition delves into the unseen, posing the question: How can we visualize what we cannot see? Through experimental mixed media, and layers of acrylic and oil on canvas, Jorge seeks to capture invisible forces—translating raw energy into tangible, evocative art. The exhibition also features a video installation—a compilation of short films documenting the creation of his murals.

Currently, Jorge is in residence in Tijuana, where he hosts creative gatherings, welcoming visitors to experience his work and engage with the vibrant cultural landscape of the city.

The Everything is Energy opening will be an immersive event featuring an event collaboration with the San Diego Ballet, celebrating its 35th season. Free to the public, this grand spectacle will blend Mendoza’s visionary art with live ballet performances at 6:30 PM and 7:30 PM, offering a unique fusion of visual art and dance. Don’t miss this unforgettable evening where two art forms converge to create a truly extraordinary experience.
