Hoja Santa Art Maya
Maya Art's work explores themes of femininity, religious syncretism and cultural diversity. Oaxaca, in the home of Juliana, a lawyer and her teenage daughter, Veronica. In 2017, she spent a year in the Afro-Mexican village of Costa Chica.
They live relatively separately from men due to a local history of violence but the life of community revolves around them. It was Juliana who introduced her to the women of the community - healers, midwives, widows, single mothers and mothers with many children. The village is steeped in magic, hidden energies and secrets.
Traditional medicine and healing and healing techniques such as espanto (soul cleansing) or empacho (healing) abound. The work explores three key themes - the anthropology of Afro-Mexican villages, the coming together of Catholic and African spirituality and the place of women in society. For Maya it is also a form of autobiography
