She also asks the broader question: how can artistic practice pave the way for healing?\u003cbr\u003eThis bilingual collection of essays and interviews from Monterroso, as well as a host of curators, activists and scholars across the Americas, unravels the core themes of her work including ancestral knowledge, Indigenous identities and feminisms, as well as the relationship between materiality and memory. At the same time, they point to the strategies Monterroso employs to forge connections through a self-reflective lens on her own history--keeping her past alive and, in doing so, mobilizing the present.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sandra Monterroso\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 6079939789\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9786079939786\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Temblores Publicaciones\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/02\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 360\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 6.20w x 0.80d","brand":"Sandra Monterroso","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47135470321919,"sku":"9786079939786","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_741bceeb-65fc-4f2b-8fbd-0392e95f519c.jpg?v=1755010252","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sandra-monterroso-sandra-monterroso-9786079939786","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
