DELILAH MONTOYA VISUAL REPRESENTATION Delilah Montoya has had art exhibitions in various parts of the country, especially in Houston, Texas, and Albuquerque, New Mexico. In her art of an image of the Virgin of Guadalupe drawn on the front part of a faceless being of what could be a woman, we are going to present the role of religious iconologies to the people’s faith. The reason I chose the image is that it tries to describe what role the church and religion play in the community where people face different forms of struggles. Montoya, in the image, has a clear message she intends for the audience to understand. From many of the artist’s work, she has always tried to emphasize the role and struggles women go through in their lives, and this isn’t an exception. In the image, we see a faceless of what appears to be a woman with vegetation of cacti growing in front of her. The background represented in a vintage black and white form. Women have, for a very long period, been the subject of mistreatment…

It refers to the extended allegory in which humans are portrayed as having been bound by their individual bodies and what they see through suite alone (Castro 104). In Plato’s allegory of the cave, his objective was to indicate the manner in which the actual reality is never what it always seem to be. Some prisoners were locked up in chains within a cave as from childhood, and every prisoner was also chained to one another through the head. Further, the prisoners were required to face a blank wall even as they were imprisoned inside the cave. A fire was lit behind the prisoners and though they were unable to see the fire there was a puppet show in which individuals would talk, walk, as well as carry various objects with the aim of keeping the prisoners amused. The prisoners were only able to see the individuals’ shadows along with those of the things that were…

As a result of Jim Crow staunch laws in the south, and mainstream of population experiencing economic depression and the impacts of post war, most of African Americans decide to migrate towards the industrialized, Northern cities (Bremer & Sydney, 2012, p.47). This is after decades of staunch prejudice, slavery and exclusion laws and now the African Americans have hope in this Northern region of the country.
