Rita Flores de Wallace Contributing Artist/Folk Historian
A native of Saltillo, Coahuila Mexico, Rita Flores de Wallace has dedicated
her life to the expression of cultural roots of the peoples of Mexico through
art work, stories and dance. Trained by the last Tlaxcaltecan dancer, Rita is
impressed by the adage, “Reach for the Stars.” However, she believes that
the pursuit of our dreams becomes infinitely richer when we stoop to our
roots to gather the wealth that they yield. Cultural Interpretations is proud to
have Rita as the contributing artist for the 2009-2011 exhibitions,
workshops, and cultural market featuring histories from indigenous Mexico.
