{ mendieta silueta series }


















I haven't posted anything about artists in a while, and Ana Mendieta is right up there in my top five! These images are taken from her 'Silueta Series (1973-1980)'. Always makes me think about the space you're in - the effect you have on space and space has on you. The black and whites are beautiful and haunting...







What imprint are you leaving behind?

  1. Hi Sheenagh,

    Love your pictures and writing, shows you have a deeper insight into the world you live in. Would like to get in touch with you for help regarding something magical I would like to create in Oudshoorn but not quite sure what will be required and wondered if you might be able to help me? It is a Nature Reserve with Railway Museum, Artificial Lagoon, Butterfly and African Wild-cat Sanctuary, Gardens and Miniature Railway. I think it would be a big asset.
