Medicine for Nightmares

SF Art Galleries - Openings & Events Event Link: see venue calendar above ^^ Art Platica with Rebeca Abidail Flores y Samantha Maria Espinoza Saturday, July 11th 7PM @Medicine for Nightmares' Galería Join us tonight for a good old fashioned Poche art platica with Rebeca Abidail Flores y Samantha Maria Espinoza whose collective show It Repeats, El Paso Poetico is currently on view in our galeria. Rebeca Abidail Flores is a Salvadoreña and Mexican American artist from Fresno, CA. She has an MFA in Writing from the University of San Francisco. Her work is centered on ideas of work and play and how land interacts with culture and community. Samantha Maria Xochitl Espinoza is a Chicana artist coming from a Mexican and Salvadoran family. She grew up in L.A and in Denver, CO and currently resides on Lisjan Ohlone land (Oakland, CA). She references living in between worlds, identities, and homes as a marker of her queer, Chicana experience. Her work reveals her generational and personal history, moments, and traumas as openings for wider conversations on racialized, gendered, and capitalist oppressions. She creates art solely for other brown women to enjoy, and as a gift to her communities in the hopes that they will see parts of themselves reflected or whispered within her work. She is a youth educator, organizer, daughter, sister and falls in love frequently. ―――――――――― SF Stuff To Do Do not edit this event! changes will be overwritten
