Wednesday Night Live: Film screening of Maya Goded’s “Plaza de la Soledad”

This upcoming Wednesday Night Live, join us for a film screening of “Plaza de la Soledad” by Maya Goded, one of the featured artists in our upcoming exhibition, Women of Land and Smoke: The Photographs of Graciela Iturbide and Maya Goded.

Goded’s photography explores female identity while addressing themes of sexuality, gender violence, and resilience against oppression. Set in La Merced, within downtown Mexico City, “Plaza de la Soledad” offers an intimate glimpse into the lives of women in the sex trade. Goded reveals the harsh realities they navigate—abuse, fear, and the emotional toll of selling intimacy—while also honoring their histories, families, superstitions, and dreams. In this documentary, she captures the beauty and complexity of their bodies, reminding us of their strength and humanity.

Enjoy a cash bar, popcorn, and galleries will be open late! Introduction at 6 PM, Q and A at 8 PM
