About the Work: Natalia Iguiñiz is known for creating photographs with socio-political agendas. Her artwork addresses gender roles, the position of religion in society and class issues. The series La otra depicts middle and upper-class Peruvian women with their working class servants. The women’s body language and facial expressions tell us how much they view one another as different from themselves, as “the other.”
