Summary
Artist Fernando Palma (San Pedro Acropan, 1957) uses contemplation of ecosystems and ideologies from the perspectives of indigenous communal belonging. Palma, a Nauhua speaker himself, is an artist, writer and critic. The artist rescues the imagery of the original peoples of the Valley of Mexico to make a critical comment on the way in which the modern city is related to the environment. With this project, the artist seeks to draw attention to the systematic destruction of the traditions of the native peoples, of their archaeological and environmental in the delegation Milpa Alta. The exhibition comprises a sculptural group consisting of three parts: 1. Quiyahuacoatl (rain serpent). Weather station that llos like a snake; 2. Nochi tle in Nechmalacachoa (everything that surrounds me). Group of four characters with radio headset grouped around a tonalamatl or 20-day calendar; and 3. Chicuace Ilhuicapa (Six Heaven). Four characters with head of coyote, a coyote snake hanging from the ceiling and a coyote crocodile with several heads of coyote. "The work of Fernando Palma moves between activism, performance and mechatronic. His actions and objects are framed under one principle: intervention in the specter of a world that has been made invisible." (HKB Translation)--Page 7.
