DESCRIPTION:Ana Mendieta’s earth-body sculptures\, grounded in the material
 ity of earthly substances—fire\, rock\, sand\, feathers\, mud—constitute on
 e of the most innovative body of works in contemporary art and reframes the
  Cuban Imaginary\, revitalizing the connection between island and diaspora.
  This lecture examines Ana Mendieta’s Siluetas as a mythologizing of landsc
 ape through the female form. It then turns to the Rupestrian Sculptures car
 ved at Jaruco Park near Havana\, a series that retrieves the Taíno legacy w
 hile aligning with Fernando Ortiz’s concept of ecomythologies\, to suggest 
 the way that Caribbean nature shapes the islands’ creative imagination.\n\n
