A Vital Matters Perspective: Cosas que Sangran: An Introduction
Cosas que Sangran: An Introduction
This video explores Cosas que Sangran, a large sculptural work by Tanya Aguiñiga that combines experimental weaving, cochineal dye, and collaborative knowledge. It looks at how the piece connects material processes, ancestral dye practices learned through dialogue with Porfirio Gutiérrez, and themes of womanhood, migration, and borderlessness, using color, form, and symbolism to reflect on labor, the body, and shared cultural landscapes between Mexico and Southern California.
