Description
Sharing an interest in archive materials, artists Angela Scardigno and Regina Perez Kamel decided to collaborate, resulting in Greetings from El Valle, a project that meets history with art.
“Approaching ‘Magic Valley’ archive materials from the Museum of South Texas History through collage was a transformative experience. It taught us about the region we live in, made us reflect upon narratives and their relationship to place, and allowed us to think of ourselves as active agents in historical processes.”
By presenting each of their collage responses together, along with archive materials and artifacts, the artists invite the community to look at the past with eyes for the future.
