Nariguera 1
Regular price
$135.00
Limited edition of 250
In the deep yellow art print Nariguera 1 by Costa Rican artist Priscilla González, the artist makes reference to Pre-columbian narigueras, a form of intricate nasal jewellery made from gold. Used by both men and women, it's believed narigueras were worn as a symbol of status and, research suggests, during wedding rituals. Priscilla's narigueras are decorated with curvaceous female forms taken from vintage erotic literature. A creative and powerful reminder of the tension between societal expectations and the personal erotic desires that society tells us are taboo for women above a certain age.

“The Pre-columbian influence in my art comes from my desire to embrace my own culture and its history after having spent so many years trying to fit in while living in the United States or other foreign cultures. I want to embrace the wisdom and knowledge of my Pre-columbian ancestors and celebrate their culture.”

Priscilla González
Costa Rican artist Priscilla González is known for her intricate works on paper and her focus on femininity and intimacy. She references domestic objects such as doilies, as well as erotic photos of curvaceous women from the 1960s and 1970s. By combining the domestic and the erotic, Priscilla's art highlights the tension being a ‘respectable’ woman in public and the private desires that come to life behind closed doors, away from the judgemental gaze of society.
Working with Caroline to curate our artwork was a pleasure from start to finish. We’re thrilled with the quality of the prints and the way they brighten and enhance our space.
For anyone who enjoys art that stands out and brightens up a room, purchasing prints from Studio Parga is something I would highly recommend.
