Nuestra Señora de las Iguanas

–Gabriella Iturbide

Our Lady of the Iguanas “It’s a photo that I took casually in the

market. The woman arrived in the market with iguanas on her head to sell, and I told her: Wait a minute let me take

your photo….The image has been interpreted not only by me but by critics,

by Chicanos, by the Jushitán people themselves, who made a banner of it

and baptized her “Juchitecan Medusa. ”
