Believing in Beauty -The Heart in the Art of Connie Arismendi
"The elegance of Arismendi’s work is in the relationships of what it references. Easily aligned with papel picado (the Mexican folk tradition of cut paper decorations), the work’s silhouette figures
exist in a cross cultural archetypal utopia, delivering a promise of paradise in a solid sculptural medium that balances between two and three dimensions."(c)
