[vc_column width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text]<\/span><\/p>\n The exhibition features a selection of three projects by Sof\u00eda Echeverri. In each of these, the artist proposes a critical reality that questions and denounces some of the manifestations of patriarchy. A common, recognizable thread is the presence of colorful geometrical figures that could be understood as a kaleidoscope lens showing us another way of seeing the world. Echeverri unveils a female universe; we are witnessing a <\/span>universe revealed<\/span><\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n [vc_empty_space]<\/span><\/p>\n Certain indigenous rituals still performed today support the artist\u00b4s line of investigation that resulted in her <\/span>Invoking Rain<\/span><\/i> series: why are women not seen as active participants? In Echeverri\u00b4s paintings, tastuanas, tlahualilas and female shamans are the ones tasked with establishing ties between goddesses and idols. Everything has become female.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n [vc_empty_space]\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n In her <\/span>Secret Archaeology <\/span><\/i>series, Echeverri poses a new question: why are pre-Hispanic ceramic figures representing women identified exclusively in terms of their sex and not their trades? The artist recognizes the contribution women made as geologists, topologists, linguists, cactologists, protectors and goddesses, and reverts the invisibilization of their roles by eliminating the anonymous label of \u201cfemale figure\u201d so often used.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n [vc_empty_space]<\/span><\/p>\n Finally, her <\/span>Women of Wisdom <\/span><\/i>series denounces violence and feminicide. Ten totemic figures make for a powerful installation in which each represents a specific attribute (light, health, universe, sisterhood, blood, identity, depth, seeds, containment and darkness). The <\/span>Women of Wisdom<\/span><\/i> create, structure and participate in a revolutionary ritual in which ten voices sing an emblematic global feminist anthem in native languages, thus integrating the cultural baggage of Mesoamerica and that of the modern world.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n [vc_empty_space]<\/span><\/p>\n In this exhibition, Sof\u00eda Echeverri urges us to revisit our past, rebuild our present and reconfigure our future in a world that acknowledges, validates and does justice to the wisdom and powers of women. Let us dare to answer her call.<\/span><\/p>\n [vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The exhibition features a selection of three projects by Sof\u00eda Echeverri.
