From book synopsis,
“Celebrating borderland Mexican American culture in the work of Kathy Sosa.
Internationally acclaimed artist, Kathy Sosa’s work presents a cross-sectional view of Mexican American culture as it is practiced in the centuries-old blended culture of the Texas-Mexico borderlands. The imagery and symbolism of puro mestizaje figure prominently in her work, reflecting a mix unique to the borderlands and their myriad cultural traditions. Drawing on strong female figures and on Indigenous traditions, colors, and textiles, Mestizaje rejoices in feminist notions of blended cultures and opens our eyes to the lessons they offer us today.”
