Maya goded photography: Through her photography, films
Maya Goded , Mexico City. Charlotte, North Carolina November 5, — Throughout the the last three decades, internationally renowned photographers Graciela Iturbide and Maya Goded have created revealing, poignant, and powerful images that examine the intersection of contemporary life and centuries-long practices throughout North and South America.
This is the first exhibition to present the work of Iturbide and Goded in tandem. Both artists, hailing from Mexico City, have dedicated their practice to spending extensive time with their subjects before photographing them. This creates an intimacy and a knowledge of the particular challenges and dynamics embedded in the communities they document.
Through their lens, Iturbide and Goded consistently highlight the vital role of women in holding together fragmenting societies, whether in urban or isolated communities. For more than 35 years, Iturbide and Goded have leaned into each other as professional colleagues and friends to discuss the power of photography, ideas, politics, and the social and cultural life taking place around them.
In an era where we increasingly glean information through images, it is essential that the makers of those images do so with consideration, respect, and thoughtfulness. To celebrate the opening of the exhibition, two special events are planned. Both programs will be in English and Spanish.
