"Las Aves"
THE EXHIBIT
WARD MUSEUM OF WILDFOWL ARTS, SALISBURY UNIVERSITY (MAY 2021)
A closer look at the set-up of Las Aves as associate curator Nikki Kerr hangs amate paintings, and embroidery on amate, by Mexican-American artist María Guadalupe Casey.
Amate is a Spanish word that comes from the Nahuatl amatl. This indigenous Mexican medium has been made from bark in a similar fashion for at least 2,000 years.
Today, indigenous Otomi artisans of Central Mexico use the amate bark, as well as nettle and mulberry trees, to create unique sheets of paper by hand. They vary in shade, color, weight, and pattern, and are adorned with brightly colored paint and embroidery designs.
Opening tomorrow, Las Aves: Birds in the Art of and Inspired by Mexico highlights some of the many traditional art forms featuring birds, which are carried on by the artists and makers of Mexico, as well as birds in contemporary works created by artists living in the U.S. with heritage connected to Mexico.
