Featured in Artists’ Artists: Tania Candiani on Noé Martínez and María Sosa
Tania Candiani on how the artists’ work challenges the dominant historical narrative of the clash between Indigenous and European cultures
‘Tania Candiani on Noé Martínez and María Sosa’ is part of a series of articles in which we asked nine artists to choose a colleague whose work has been on their mind.
María Sosa and Noé Martínez share an artistic methodology and a cultural sensitivity that they express in an array of poetic forms approached from specific critical angles. Challenging the dominant historical narrative of the clash between Indigenous and European cultures and its effects on our present, the artists’ collaborative works speak of languages, identity, rituals, cosmogonies and memory; of the power of objects, materials and the body.
