Sol Calero
Frutas y culebras

Calero’s distinct visual language draws upon visual clichés and imported ideas that we might associate with Latin America,  She uses stereotypically ‘tropical’ imagery such as exotic fruit and salsa dresses, inviting the audience to reconsider notions of creation, privilege and cultural appropriation.
