Descripción de la Exposición

Museo de las Americas, in partnership with Latina SafeHouse and Art and Color, is proud to present this powerful, taboo-shattering exhibition about Domestic Violence in the Latinx community. This community art show features 13 local artists, sharing their stories through visual and mixed media artwork. 1 in 3 Latinx women will experience domestic violence in her lifetime, yet it continues to be a taboo topic, often seen as a “private problem.” Curator Carina Bañuelos-Harrison, the founder of Art and Color, invites viewers to see, hear and feel the voices of survivors, and to celebrate their strength. “Publicly exposing the implications of domestic violence transforms the conversation around what many of us consider forbidden and gives us an opportunity to empower survivors” says Bañuelos-Harrison. Visitors are warmly invited to be part of the conversation. Executive Director Claudia Moran says “this conversation is so important for our community; this is an issue that affects all of us. It is an honor to provide the space for survivors to share their stories, and to celebrate their resilience. Please join us for conversations that will transform our community for generations to come.”
