Intuitive use of performance, sound, and memory, shapes commentary on self-exploration during a period void of interpersonal touch. Comic relief underlines the importance of self-love, sensuality and trust; as if the supple nature of resiliency was breaking news to destructive machista ideologies so ingrained within ourselves and our social fabrics. “Primal Impacto” invites viewers to release. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56aee624e32140aba6f85e15/1622754348334-0ZCCT13GGRPWZHIUCBHK/wolfsmall-Josefina-rodriguez-varela.jpg Works Gallery - Tea Time at Grandma's_Josefina_Rodriguez Digital photography - This image is part of the ‘Folk Tales” series, works in different mediums that re- imagine the outcome of the 17th century folk tale. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56aee624e32140aba6f85e15/1622755130927-4CR3LVMENZROFC84JZ9E/2019_EvocativeObject.jpg Works Gallery - Object_Josefina_Rodriguez Ceramic Vessel with type writer machine pieces https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56aee624e32140aba6f85e15/1628656533097-8G3JRTEZPX6DQ6SOT0XC/119A639D-23F2-4C67-AF2E-78174D47C38A.jpeg Works Gallery - Porn_Plate_1_Josefina_Rodriguez The collection "Porn Plates" was created appropriating images of women from pornographic magazines and using them to decorate the surface of dinner plates.

It was originally made as a compassionate response to the pain of a loved one who was unable to conceive children. But as the piece took form it became evident other that women saw their own frustrations, suffering and strengths reflected in it as well. This work brought on many conversations with other women, and it was a privilege to hear their stories of pain and endurance. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56aee624e32140aba6f85e15/1628658794474-8S6RMB8VNG1U0BCJO9E9/IMG_5387.jpeg Works Gallery - Subspace_Josefina_Rodriguez Ceramic sculpture and decals https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/56aee624e32140aba6f85e15/1628659196309-QV3VLBUUHRHGDTVEJTMD/Screen+Shot+2021-08-10+at+11.19.12+PM.png Works Gallery - River God - JosefinaRodriguez ‘Strike, Dear Mistress’ explores the role of the dominant female, as well as the role of the submissive male.
