In Oaxaca, art is tradition, heritage, and a testament to resilience. Yet for many Indigenous women artists, it also means struggle—long days of work and limited opportunities.

Only 25% of exhibitions worldwide feature women, and even fewer highlight the voices of rural or Indigenous communities. That’s why, together with MACMO and DuPont Underground, we proudly showcase the talent of Oaxacan women artists at the IDB Staff Association Art Gallery.

On view until November 21st.
