Contrasto publishing house has just released Trilogy, a collection of the works created by Flor Garduño over the course of thirty years in Mexico and Europe. It is pervaded by myths and legends and reflects Garduno’s navigation through a magical land that echos Mexico, where she was born. The book is presented like a “dance” in three times: bestiarium (real and fictional images of enchanted animals), fantastic women (a celebration of the feminine universe) and silent natures (objects created to maintain her playful spirit). More about Garduño and her work is available here.
