The Museum of Contemporary Art, North Miami (MOCA) is pleased to announce the 2026 Art on the Plaza artists: Joan Edmundo Jiménez Suero, Carrington Ware and Josh Aronson.

The 2026 public art installations will be on view sequentially.

Bailando Nuestros Problemas, by Joan Jiménez "Entes", will debut on the plaza on March 10. These site-specific sculptural works of cut iron will draw inspiration from every day life of Little Havana and celebrate Latin American and Afro-descendant communities, exploring migration and collective resilience. Jiménez's work reaffirms the power of everyday life as a source of beauty, complexity, and shared humanity.

Opening in June, Carrington Ware’s Homespun will activate the museum’s central fountain with a series of colorful fabric flags referencing the artist’s childhood experiences in the rural south and her time in South Florida. Smaller kites and streamers will also be floating along with the flags, catching the wind for a more dynamic and immersive experience.

In October, Miami-based artist and photographer Josh Aronson’s installation A Sudden Leap (2026) will feature two sail masts rising from the reflecting pool, each supporting sails printed with photographs drawn from Florida’s natural environment. The installation will offer visitors a gateway to the natural world, thus transforming the plaza into a site for contemplation, longing, and solace.
