SSA ESSAY PROJECT | PATRICIA ESPINOSA

This month we feature a guest essay by socially engaged multidisciplinary artist Patricia Espinosa. Born in Mexico and based in New York, Patricia reflects on how her participation in the recent ¡Te Amo Porque S.O.S. Pueblo! group show in the Bronx, described by The New York Times as, “a celebration of immigrants in a time of crackdowns and deportations”, reshaped her understanding of her own experience as a migrant.
The SSA essay programme intends to highlight the creative thinking of our members and to provide a platform for expressing and sharing our opinions on Art, Life and the World.
SSA Members are invited to submit essays for consideration by the SSA Essay Steering Group. This Group will look for essays containing original ideas and pertinent comments on the arts and beyond. You might, for example, like to write about your own art practice, the work of other artists you are familiar with, shows you have seen, or your musings on creative and cultural life.
