GIULIA GATTI
Corazonada
This work was born in the isthmus of Tehuantepec (Oaxaca) in southern Mexico, a territory that historically has been the subject of numerous narratives and representations by different travelers, academics and artists. In a complex and patriarchal state such as Mexico, the Isthmus stands out for having built a reputation as a "matriarchal society" over time. Devoting a lot of attention to the women who live in this place, Corazonada is a small attempt to take care of the imagination and desires of these women, the scenarios related to mystery, eroticism, nostalgia and spirituality.
