After we got back from Melilla, we went to an art exposition at the Ayuntamiento in Seville featuring photographs of Frida Kahlo. Frida’s works were often self portraits, so photography was undoubtedly an important medium of expression for her.
Most of the images were in black and white, but there were a few in color. This photo of Frida Kahlo was among one of my favorites. Even though she suffered from a lot of health issues as a result of an accident that she had when she was younger, she never lost her passion for painting. Here Frida is bedridden, but she used mirrors to be able to use her cast as a canvas.
