Christina, Saint, b. 1150
Note:
From the Ceremony of Memory Exhibition organized by Patricio Chavez at Centro Cultural de la Raza (November 17, 1989-January
21, 1990). A painting of Saint Christina is repeated seven times, growing progressively smaller, on a diagonal that recedes
into the distance. The paintings are standing on a checkered floor and a strip of stars and an angel hover above. Doll heads,
hands and torsos form a border at the bottom.
