An exhibition of paintings from 2019-2021, "Together with the Earth" of Suzy González is a collection of solitary figures existing at the crossroads of human rights, environmental concerns, and mental health. The figures are meaningfully positioned, offering a still of their current emotional state. The corn husks represent the skin of the figures, recalling Mesoamerican beliefs that our very beings are created from maíz. These “mestiza media” works reclaim the “mestizo” colonial caste label.
Following the opening reception, the exhibit will be on display until September 25.
