    ELIMINAR LA TIERRA: Paula Valdeón Lemus' work explores the decorative designs, patterns and colours of dwellings, in this case the houses and indigenous villages of the San Cristobal de las Casas area in Mexico, attending to her unconscious part. Through the analysis of the different patterns of the city, the artist plays with shapes, colours and spaces of the places, including motifs from her mental map. The paintings and drawings are based on the culture of the place; both bring together techniques learned from the indigenous villages of the highlands of Chiapas, making nature and plant patterns the protagonist in the culture of decoration. The resulting pieces are a conciliation of opposites. The syncretism and the coexistence of the two cultures that serve the artist to create pieces where a plastic synergy is created between three worlds, the Tzotil, the colonial and that of the imagination.

    The parts hidden behind the tiles are the part corresponding to "the earth" in the huipiles, represented as snakes. In this way, the pomposity of the baroque tiles gives a glimpse of the Tzotzil representation of the earth, but through a harmony of colours and lines, opposites are reconciled.
