Join Gabo Martinez, the artist behind "The Land of Flowers," and the exhibition’s curator, María-Elisa Heg, for an intimate walkthrough of this new body of work in ceramic and print.
Martinez’s vibrant work centers a reclamation of indigenous identity through craft production. Her vivid terracotta vessels and large-scale prints feature motifs like the flower, a deeply significant symbol in the poetic tradition of Nahuatl speakers, known as In xochitl In cuicatl (Flower and Song).
