Action by Núria Güell part of the Medellin International Art Encounter - MDE15
6 Nov. 2015 - 27 March 2016
The tour ends with the painting La casa de Amanda Ramírez, which from the girls’ point of view combines all the stories they want to tell. What strikes them the most is a woman peeping through the door. At first, Valentina used to cry when she started describing that particular character. After a month doing the tours, she does not cry anymore but she still sighs and says: “This woman is all of us, who see what’s happening and keep silent. Those of us who see and say noting are the ones responsible.”
