This image captures a textile sculpture, titled "MIRROR MEMORY" by Mtra. Ma. del Carmen Valdés Cuervo (2021), located within a modern institutional building in San Andrés Cholula, Mexico. The sculpture consists of a stylized, gender-neutral figure seated in a fetal position with knees drawn up and arms crossed over the knees. The figure is made of dark gray fabric patterned with fine, white, branching lines resembling veins or roots, and lacks distinct facial features but has defined toes. It is enclosed within a large, dark, cocoon-like structure, approximately egg-shaped, composed of densely interwoven black fibrous material, resting on a base of the same material. The installation is positioned on a light brown wood-patterned floor. In the background, a contemporary indoor space with white walls and gray baseboards is visible through glass partitions, revealing an open-plan area with gray office chairs, tables, and overhead linear lighting. Vertical wooden slat panels are present on either side of the glass. To the right of the sculpture, a dark metal pole supports a circular sign with an orange border, displaying the artwork's title, artist, date, and additional text in Spanish.
