This beautiful video is a portrait of the life and work of Cuban-born
American artist Ana Mendieta. Mendieta used her own body, the raw materials of
nature, and Afro-Cuban religion to express her feminist political consciousness
and poetic vision. Interview footage with Mendieta and her own filmed records
of her earthworks and performances are incorporated to render a vivid testament
to her energy and extraordinary talent after her tragic, untimely death in
1985.
A Women Make Movies film. 52 minutes.
