About the Item

Nadie nos desata (No One Unties Us) by Marta Maria Perez Bravo is a black and white photograph of a woman lying on her stomach, surrounded by a structure of crosses. Gelatin Silver Print 20 x 16 in. Ed. 5/10 Signed, titled, dated and numbered in ink on print verso Copyright stamp on print verso Marta María Pérez Bravo (b. 1959, La Habana, Cuba) is best known for her black-and-white self-portraiture, in which she often uses her own body as the central subject-object to express her own belief in - and practice of - Afro-Cuban religions, particularly Santeria and Palo Monte. Much of her art is informed by this practice, and engages with the themes of ritual, motherhood and femininity, expressed through the highly stylized posing of her body, which is placed in relation to personally and ritually significant objects in her self-portraits. Her work has been included in many international exhibitions and are in permanent collections across the United States and Europe. Since the mid-1990s Pérez has lived and worked in Mexico City.
