I am a Peruvian artist with American citizenship. Born in 1962. |
| About the Artist | |
I left Peru as an adult, already aware of its racial, social, cultural and economic climate. The society I came from was formed through the violent encounter between two cultural streams: the European and the indigenous world. My cultural background is the sum of a continuous hybridization- a cultural context defined, redefined and tormented by the simultaneous influences of pre-Columbian, Colonial, and Republican eras. |

| India Najayota is part of the installation PLUNDER ME, BABY. The installation consist in several pieces on shelves as in an anthropological museum, where they are admired while their makers and their heirs are ignored because of their poverty and their race. Its peyorative name refers to the way people are verbally abused in our Latin American societies. |
