Ever wonder why I enjoy working with images of Frida Kahlo so much? My love for all things Frida Kahlo is linked directly to my grandmother Anita Consuelo Madriaga.
Like Frida, my Gramma Anita was born in 1907 and like Frida she was half German and half indigenous Mexican (Mexican Indian). Both lived in Mexico City during the Mexican Revolution and were greatly shaped by the city's fierce independent spirit and its European influence.
Gramma Anita was worldly and feisty. She spoke four languages, travelled the world and loved pretty things. She influenced me tremendously-- I named my first born for her--and she imparted her love of art, exploration and independence. She lived to be 102.
Every time I invoke Frida Kahlo and her transcendent force, I summon my adored Gramma and it feels like home. -Betsy Gorman
