Veronica Castillo: Tierra y Mujer, Un Solo Ser

A Contemporary Art exhibit of clay sculptures by renowned ceramicist Veronica Castillo Salas, depicting the relationship of women to the earth.

Through a deeply contemplative artistic practice, Castillo creates images of women and earth intertwined as allegorical representations of rebirth, regeneration and regrowth. By focusing on literal, metaphorical, and symbolic representations of indigenous women engaged in daily activities such as planting and harvesting food, grinding corn, talking to birds, climbing trees; she hopes to expand how we understand procreation. While women are traditionally depicted as mothers, Castillo wants to honor women as life affirming radical matriarchs, caretakers of the Earth, that also birth ideas & dreams.

We welcome the public, friends and family to this Free Admission, One Night Only Exhibit. This exhibit is partially funded by @City of San Antonio Arts & Culture Department & The Individual Artist Grant. Also, by @a todo dar productions and @Galeria E.V.A. (ecos y voces del arte).
