Eva Lavranou on Ana Mendieta’s Nile Born

In the online edition of MoMA’s ArtSpeaks program, we invite staff members, artists, and special guests to share personal impressions of an artwork in the galleries. Here, Ambasz Institute intern, Eva Lavranou provides a deeper look into how Ana Mendieta’s sculpture Nile Born demonstrates how humans and nature can collaborate.

Explore our collection work by work as we release a new video each month. Watch the videos and then come visit the works in person at MoMA!
