Marta Pérez García’s art explores in a poetic way a wide range of human conditions, from fragility and vulnerability to strength and survival. Her recent work, created during the COVID-19 pandemic, addresses the troubling yet rarely discussed increase in domestic violence due to stay-at-home orders, especially toward women and children. Her Intersections project Restos-Traces speaks to that.
Restos-Traces is comprised of 20 female torsos constructed with handmade paper and added elements such as wire, nails, metal spikes, hair, teeth, and film negative. The Spanish-English title (restos meaning ruins or remaining) alludes to the recollection and preservation of memories through visual storytelling, in this case memories of brutality, abuse, and trauma. Pérez García’s headless torsos are muted, ranging in skin tones from light to dark. Modeled after standard female mannequins, they are similar in size but differ in appearance and expression. Some are dressed and others are more sexualized; some are hurting while others are fighting. They are at once eerie and beautiful, fearless, and dignified. What gives them bearing and power are their accentuated spines that become symbols of resistance, tenacity, and continued existence. As Pérez García puts it, “I try to give, in a way, visibility to the women who are not here anymore, but at the same time for us to see in these bodies our own lives.”
In Restos-Traces, the torsos are paired with two works from the Phillips’s permanent collection: Francis Bacon’s Study of a Figure in a Landscape (1952)—a painting that emanates loss, anxiety, and frailness—and Annette Messager’s My Little Effigies (1989-90), an installation with stuffed animals holding pictures of body parts with handwritten texts expressing emotions such as anger, laughter, and reconciliation. When enclosed in the gallery space, the works of Bacon, Messager, and Pérez García intensify an array of physical and psychological states, from victimization to endurance, detachment to companionship.

The Kodak Reflex camera was introduced in 1946 , followed by the Kodak Reflex II in 1948 ; the latter was a restyled version of the first . There is also a Kodak Reflex IA model , that appears to be an upgraded version of the first model . Both have the same name plate on the back , but different ones on the front . The later model has a thicker film wind knob , the same Flash Kodamatic shutter but with a different lever , and the flash synchronizer scale is absent . The most important difference is , that the ground glass in the viewer compartment is replaced by a Fresnel lens , with a clearer image .
Made in USA and Mexico , 1988- . Similar to the Kodak Trimlite Instamatic 18 or Winner pocket camera . In red, blue, yellow, green, pink . With flipflash socket .

Los códices son manuscritos pictográficos o de imágenes realizados
por los indígenas de México y América Central.
A los encargados de elaborar los manuscritos se les llamaba Tlacuinos, los que escriben pintando en náhuatl, y podían ser tanto hombres como mujeres.
Para poder leer los códices, se les colocaba horizontalmente en el suelo, protegidos por esteras, así el tlacuino lector y los oyentes se situaban alrededor del códice y podían verlo en su totalidad.
Los antiguos habitantes de Mesoamérca plasmaron en los códices su concepción del mundo, sus creencias religiosas, sus actividades comerciales e incluso cotidianas.

Card Text (transcribed from postcard): University of Richmond -- Founded in 1832, for the first eighty years of its history the University of Richmond was known as 'Richmond College.' In 1920, its charter was amended and its present name adopted. Its grounds now embrace an area of nearly 300 acres about three miles west of the city, and possesses many features of great natural beauty. It is organized on the English system, and has a faculty of 60 members and an attendance (in 1926) of nearly 1,250 students. Since 1903 Frederick W. Boatwright, L.L.D. has been its President, and under his able administration the institution has shown remarkable growth and development.

The name and graphic inspiration derives from James Beard award winning restaurant owner Celina Tio’s former boarding school in Pennsylvania, where the mascot was a moose. “Collection” was a homeroom-type gathering time for students.
