The Guadalupe de Muertes

This piece completed in 2000 and was shown at Tohono Chull in that year. The piece then toured  2 years as part of a show sponsored by The Arizona Commision on the Arts. G de M has not been publicly displayed since that time. It is an electrified wall hanging piece measuring 18 x 24 inches with an approximate depth of 8 inches. It is on pegs that force it from the wall creating a multi-colored glow about it's entire frame. The interior of the box is lit as well. This is truly a unique and one of a kind piece.
  
The Guadalupe de Muertes will be shown as part of a coming show in titled "La Morenita" at the Raices Taller Gallery 218E. 6th St Tucson Arizona. The show will run November 23rd to December 28th.

La Morenita is a theme that reflects traditional or contemporary interpretations of the Virgen de Guadalupe, Navidad, Hanukkah, Las Posadas, or Kwanzaa. In addition a Milagrito (folk art cross) depicting the virgin at it's center piece will be shown as well. Milagritos have long been a major component of the many creative projects at Rancho Milagrito.   
 The Gallery may be reached at (520) 881-5335
