"Women taking ownership of their bodies and allowing forgiveness of self as a form of healing is one of the ways in which I have approached my work. It is as much a formal experiment as it is a societal gift."Laura Aguilar (1959–2018) was a trailblazing Chicana artist and photographer, best known for her images that explore ideas of beauty and the female form in relation to nature and place. In the 1980s and 1990s, she experimented with portraiture and text to give visibility to a range of perspectives from Latinx and LGBTQ communities around Los Angeles. She later began using her naked body as a subject, adopting photography as a medium to empower herself and find her place among diverse interests and intersecting identities. Her images have been increasingly exhibited and praised since a major retrospective in the United States launched in 2017.This publication showcases works from different photographic series that made Aguilar one of the most influential artists of her generation. It also includes one of her previously unpublished artist statements.

Experience the powerful work of Ana Mendieta, a groundbreaking feminist artist known for her earth-body ephemeral sculptures.Active between 1972 and 1985, Ana Mendieta was a highly influential feminist artist who created groundbreaking work across photography, film, earth work, drawing, installation and performance.Widely celebrated for her Silueta series, which outlines the artist's own body in the landscape using earth, fire, water, flowers and other materials, Mendieta documented such ephemeral, temporary works using still photography and film. This monograph, published to accompany the first major exhibition of Mendieta’s work in the UK in over a decade, showcases such works across over 200 expertly reproduced images.Essays by contributors such as Chuz Martinez, Ida Panicelli and Maria Elena Ortiz delve deeper into individual artworks, including rare paintings from the beginning of Mendieta’s career (De Pelicula, 1969), ephemeral sculptures (Sandwoman series), and the seminal Atabey (Mother of the Waters) made in the early 1980s, which saw the artist working alongside the soft limestone walls of caves outside Havana.
