The City of San Antonio Department of Arts & Culture hosts a talk with artist Delilah Montoya, whose work is featured in the exhibit, "Nuestra Latinidad," currently on display at Centro de Artes Gallery. The talk will be moderated by Teresa Eckmann, Ph.D.

An established artist who works primarily in photography and mixed-media installation and lives in New Mexico, Delilah Montoya was born in Texas and raised in the Midwest. In her work, Montoya delves into and explores Chicano culture. Perceptions of racial identity and their origins are at the crux of Montoya’s Contemporary Casta Portraiture: "Nuestra Calidad,” which she describes as “an ethnographic art project that examines the ethnic roots of Colonial Heritage Families.”
