The Mexican Embassy invites you to Signs of History: A joint exhibition by Martha Delgado Ponce and Casandra Sabag Hillen
July 3rd to 31st, 2012
Nairobi National Museum, Museum Hill
Cultural Dynamism Gallery
Opening reception July 3rd, 6.30pm
About the artists:
Both artists graduated from the National School of Plastic Arts (ENAP) of the Mexican National Autonomous University (UNAM).  Martha Delgado is from the Education Continues Program and was a student in Maestro Ignacio Salazar’s workshop, and Casandra Sabag has a degree and postgraduate studies in Visual Arts; both are in search for the consolidation of a visual discourse that defines their identity as producers. The quality accomplished in their recent work is evident. In Contemporary Art, the elimination of a representation has become a norm and has been replaced by the presentation of objects in a way that illusion has become an exception in this context. In their journey, these artists intend to recover the representation of an image by means of the reappraisal of paintings. Even though each artist has their own plan, they both make use of photographic resources as an auxiliary tool for the development of their work, creating diverging paths.
