Flor Garduño is renowned as one of the most outstanding representatives of Latin American photography.Linked to a tradition of photopoets , she focuses on the Mexican popular lifestyle, packed with an artistic sensitivy that has carried her beyond her country to be transformed into one of the most salient exponents of contemporary photography.
Beyond doubt, Flor Garduño’s photography is autobiographically ingrained. She becomes a model of herself and what the observer lastly sees are extensions of her own self. “It is my own artistic quest, a search of the different persons that exist in my dreams” she said. She has the gift to show in her pictures how life reveals itself and faces her. And part of that life is the native American culture in which myth and rituals stay alive.
