Frida Kahlo was, like many other artists, discovered after she died. Her life was more important because she was married to Diego Rivera -- another Mexican artist. It is said that because of the somewhat traumatic life that Frida lived, her art was a result. A lot of her images are dark and many confusing but I think a very clear theme would be discovering herself and playing back her life back to others in her own way. One connection I made between Frida and our readings would be the generalization of all of them being expressions of one's self. Between all of the books that we've read this semester, I have found similarities between all of them and ten of Frida Kahlo's pieces.
