Item description from seller

Paperback. The word amarantus, which gives name to this publication, comes from the Greek amaranoos, and describes a flower that never wilts. This plant is still used to prepare ixiptlahuan, which are anthropomorphic and zoomorphic figures that are ritually consumed by some indigenous peoples in Mexico. The amaranth flower represents the persistence of the uncomfortable objects that Castillo Deball makes visible in her historical itineraries and approximations, and that keep speaking to us in the present.Ever since her early works, the artist has explored how chance a product of the passing of time, erosion, fragmentation, and human intervention, among other factors determines, to a large extent, the way we learn about the world and the narratives we create. This interest has led her to investigate the history of certain artifacts and their vicissitudes, reproductions, appropriations, and disappearances. Her formal strategies tend to reflect an inclination toward methodologies used by archaeologists to trap their findings. The resulting objects, or substitute images, conceptually approach the ancient Nahua notion of ixiptla, which can be interpreted as representation, image, and substitute, but also as skin. This concept is indispensable for approaching many of Castillo Deballs projects from the past decade.This publication features some of the artists long-term collaborators and interlocutors, including: Tatiana Falcon, with whom she made The Painters Garden; the organization Cooperacion Comunitaria for The Double Life of the Azoyu Codex; Diana Magaloni around the term ixiptla and In Tilli in Tlapalli; Hubert Matiuwaa, through poems from his book Skin People; Barbara Mundy on cartography and the artists floor pieces; Jennifer Reynolds-Kaye on Alfred Maudslay; and Catalina Lozano about the history of women who have practiced archaeology in Mexico. The publication also includes the essay A Dystopic Mesoamerica by Yasnaya Elena and an excerpt of Emiliano Monges novel Weaving Darkness. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
