 George-Cortez \ninfo@amoreternoarte.com\nExhibition dates: 09.08 – 
 10.31\n\nMany Gods No Masters is a collection of new work honoring spirit, 
 revolution and liberation. My art is constantly inspired by the resiliency 
 and magic of Black and Brown Indigenous peoples, our ancestors all over the 
 diaspora, and the way spirit is always present in our work and lives. My 
 work is inspired by decolonization and how Black and Brown Indigenous 
 peoples have always called upon the Gods, and spirits around us for 
 protection and power. We are able to step into our personal power knowing 
 that there is a greater power all around us, wanting us to succeed and 
 manifest our dreams. My work is inspired by dreams and the dreamers of the 
 world always moving towards liberation. My work is inspired by the healers, 
 the brujas, the medicine womxn, who heal and inspire and protect our 
 peoples and the earth even during the darkest times. And my work is always 
 inspired by the earth that holds us and heals us.\n- Francis Mead \n\nWe 
 are honored to have Francis Mead in the gallery at Amor Eterno Arte. The 
 new works are large colorful visions of divine feminine energies. A 
 departure from the black and white high contrast illustrations she has 
 become known for. Her new work is immersive and beautifully reverent. Each 
 piece draws you into a familiar ancestral space with a stream of 
 consciousness. A cool and whole space filled with the energy of inspiration 
 and connectivity. Now more than ever we need these portals, reminding us 
 that the oppression of contemporary society is not our destined path. 
 \n\nFrancis Mead is a Black mixed heritage artist, dreamer and queer mama 
 rooted in Huichin Ohlone Territory / Oakland, CA. Ever since she can 
 remember she made art to connect with herself, her peoples, and the spirits 
 that guide her. Her creative project Illustrated Truths seeks to uplift the 
 dreams, history and magic of people of color, womxn, queers and young 
 people in particular, as a way to inspire and liberate her peoples and the 
 earth.\n\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2018/08/19/18816980.php
