proof of the amazing brightness of the light in Oaxaca. a completely different, in my opinion, color, due to a different camera and a different ambient light. this picture was taken at the Hotel Casa Esmeralda, the small hotel ran by my mother-in-law in downtown Oaxaca.
you can see here, that when I get closer to the painting then a completely set of hues comes up!
flor de Mayo is a typical flowery tree that grows everywhere in Oaxaca. its scent can be felt in the streets as you walk over green stone cobbled streets
i think this might be the closest to reality.

I am interested in experimenting with sincretic images that capture the whole range of religious experiences. I am inspired by the architecture and mural paintings of the Aztecs, Mayan, Zapotecan and other peoples from America and I like to intersect them with the aesthetics brought to America by the Spanish, like virgins, saints and holy beings. I intersect them with a third paradigm which is my personal journey into Indian philosophies and the idea of enlightenment. The result shows where I am now, believing that art is the way, and being an artist is my religion. I am an atheist, after years of searching. I am Mexican, after two migrations. I am a grandmother and that's a priviledge. Please check my IG to see processes, inspiration and things about Oaxaca.
