Frame's dimensions: 62.5 x 72.5 x 5.5 cm.
Nahúm Bernabé Zenil was born in Chicontepec, Veracruz, in 1947. At age 12, he moved to Mexico City with his mother and siblings. An elementary school teacher by trade, Zenil inherited his taste for arts from his absent father. In 1968, he decided to study plastic arts formally at the Nacional School of Painting, Sculpture and Engraving "La Esmeralda". A painter of personal iconographies, obsessed with miscegenation and patriotic symbols, his work usually exposes his condition as a LGBT+ artist in his self-portraits. A member of the "Neo-Mexican" generation of creators, Zenil lives and works in Tenango del Aire, near Mexico City.
