Garza's Presents Solo Exhibition at Modus Locus

Alondra Garza ’23, MFA, is currently presenting a solo exhibit at the Modus Locus Gallery in southwest Minneapolis.

Garza's exhibition, Trenzada al Rio, goes into detail about her life on the U.S./Mexican border, contrasting it with the Twin Cities, and how she uses papel picado as a way to heal. Garza will also present a live conversational performance during the closing reception on March 31.

"To show the love and pain of this journey," Garza writes, "I photographed, collaged, printed, and cut images as a way of healing. I honored my heritage and indigenous roots by making Mexican papel picado and symbolized the cut papers as lost pieces of identity."
