<\/figure>\n\n\n\nEn la serie titulada \"Por la Se\u00f1al\", Edra Soto re imagina el tabern\u00e1culo, un objeto devocional conocido como \u201cel lugar de residencia\u201d desde su educaci\u00f3n en una escuela cat\u00f3lica. La artista utiliza fotograf\u00edas de sus frecuentes viajes a Puerto Rico, que se integran en las obras a trav\u00e9s de visores incorporados en cada pieza. Este enfoque le permite cuestionar las pr\u00e1cticas de adoctrinamiento colonial y transformar el tabern\u00e1culo en un espacio dedicado a recuerdos personales. Adem\u00e1s, Soto presenta una colecci\u00f3n de porcelanas titulada \u201cDos Cuerpos \/ Two Bodies\u201d<\/strong>que reinterpreta los patrones abstractos de las rejas para explorar nuevas formas de comunicaci\u00f3n<\/p>\n\n\n\n l t\u00edtulo \"Por la Se\u00f1al\"<\/strong>, que hace referencia a una frase ritual cat\u00f3lica, tambi\u00e9n alude a temas de comunicaci\u00f3n y migraci\u00f3n. A trav\u00e9s de esta serie, Soto examina las experiencias migratorias y su conexi\u00f3n con su herencia materna, ofreciendo una perspectiva personal sobre los elementos culturales e hist\u00f3ricos que moldean su identidad. La exposici\u00f3n ilumina los hilos de la historia colonial estadounidense y proporciona una visi\u00f3n impactante de la memoria cultural puertorrique\u00f1a.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Edra Soto (nacida en 1971 en Puerto Rico) es una artista, curadora y educadora con un MFA de la School of the Art Institute of Chicago y una BA de la Escuela de Artes Pl\u00e1sticas y Dise\u00f1o de Puerto Rico.
