Miriam Medrez (CDMX, 1958), even though she has gone through abstraction, the link with the corporeity is a constant in her work. The subject of her work is a reflection about a womans body. Even when the images of the female body abound in the history of art, in the work of Miriam it is approached from her own perspective and beyond, her own bowels .
