There are those who are holding on to what they have, working their program, being whom they have become. And there are those who are still casting about, cobbling together, reinventing themselves, to put it nicely.

This year, Maru and I will present an exhibition of contemporary art that includes us both and seven more artists. Painting, photography, engraving, sculpture and object art will be represented in an exquisite, deep, sensual way and with the strength that characterizes us, in the second edition of Women in Art here in San Miguel.

-Merry Calderoni
