Description

Donna Huanca Espejo Quemada is an exploration of decolonial, feminist and personal themes in the West Texas landscape through her painting and sculpture. This bilingual English and Spanish catalog documents the exhibition of the same name at Ballroom Marfa, which translates to "burnt mirror". The book delves into Huanca's first memories of Marfa, Texas, created during the pandemic. The publication features essays from curator Daisy Nam, artist Marcela Guerrero, poet Raquel Gutiérrez, and cultural critic Roberto Tejada. It also includes a walkthrough by poet and cultural critic Roberto Tejada, highlighting the performative presence in Huanca's sculptures and paintings, including the use of mirrors. Espejo Quemada examines the sentient body as a potent source and repository of memory, intuitive knowledge, imagination and desire. This catalog serves as an insight into Huanca's artistic practice, offering a unique perspective on her work and its connection to the West Texas landscape.
