Description
Paula Santiago Mixed Media Kimono c.1998
We present a unique and poignant installation created by the talented artist from Jalisco, Paula Santiago. This work, dating back to around 1998, is a manifestation of Paula's unique artistic vision, using intimate and personal materials to explore the concept of identity and existence.
"Kimono", a tribute to the traditional Japanese garment, is a small instalation crafted with rice paper. What makes this work exceptional is the use of such personal materials as the artist's own hair and blood, intimately incorporated into the creation. This installation evokes a profound connection between the artist and her work, exploring the relationship between authenticity and personal identity.
Paula Santiago's work is a unique exploration of artistic expression and the search for truth through creativity. "Traces of Life" is a window into her artistic world, where the most personal materials become means of expression. This piece not only holds significant artistic value but also raises profound questions about the nature of identity and life itself.
