Canceled—Margarita Cabrera

OPEN TO THE PUBLIC | THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELED.

Margarita Cabrera’s socio-political multi-media art combines studio practice and social activism, often as a means of “venerating the lives of Mexican immigrants, paying careful attention to the contributions of the women who make consumer goods that are sold in the United States.” Cabrera, who grew up in Mexico City, creates soft-scale fabric sculptures, sometimes made from recycled Border Patrol Uniforms, as well as grid-based printed textiles. Cabrera attended the Maryland Institute College of Art and received a BFA and MFA from Hunter College. She is currently Assistant Professor of Art at Arizona State University.
