“In the
delirious CORAZÓN SANGRANTE (Bleeding Heart, 1993), a multi-award winning music
video made in collaboration with the flamboyant postmodern performer Astrid
Hadad, Cuevas parodies Mexican nationalist iconography with an intensity akin
to religious reverence. Part kitsch, part syncretic baroque, BLEEDING HEART
takes an irreverent perspective on the mythic masochism of Mexican womanhood in
a hybrid melodramatic mix of boleros, rancheras, and tropical rhythms”
“While DEVIL
IN THE FLESH may seem like a throwback to avant-garde works from the 1970s that
depict self-inflicted physical torture, Cuevas' visceral imagery of the
artist's rubbing VapoRub and chile in her eyes exceed the shock of emotional
manipulation.The experimental documentary .”
