RACHEL LIBESKIND

Explora temas sociopolíticos relevantes para nuestra sociedad contemporánea, pero al mismo tiempo analiza sus raíces y desarrollos históricos, ya sean, por ejemplo, temas religiosos fundamentales o el papel de la figura femenina dentro de las diferentes estructuras sociales.

Con ojo crítico y valentía, llega al fondo de estos temas y lo expresa de forma muy poética a través de diversos medios artísticos, como el collage, el tapiz, la escultura, los libros y la performance.
