Description: The exhibition Defiant Spirits: Fernando Brito’s Sinaloa showcases the complex identities, histories, and traditions of Sinaloa, Mexico, through the lens of Fernando Brito. Born and raised in Sinaloa, Brito’s previous works have exposed the raw violence of living in a state governed by the Cartel de Sinaloa and the Mexican government. Yet, in Defiant Spirits, the photographer captures the enduring rituals and resilience of the Sinaloan people.
Please join us for A Gallery Talk and Exhibit Opening: Conversation with the photographer, Fernando Brito, and one of the exhibition curators, Didier Aubert (Université Sorbonne Nouvelle) on September 4 at 5pm in Miller Hall. Reception to follow.
Organized by Laura Worden, M.A.R. ‘19
