Celebrating both the rebozo as a cultural icon of Mexico and the
series of rebozo-inspired paintings by Mexican-Californian artist
Catalina Garate, this bilingual collection of poems gives voices of
strength, endurance, joy, and sorrow to the women of Garate's
paintings. The rebozo is considered a physical manifestation of
Mexican womanhood throughout every stage of life and can be used as
a tool of daily labor: a sling to carry children, a shield from
weather or from prying eyes, an heirloom, and even a shroud.
Inspired by each painting, these poems, in both Spanish and
English, are accompanied by a historical explanation of the role of
the rebozo in Mexican history, art, and culture.
