Frida Kahlo was inspired by Mexican culture and a lot of her art was considered to be “autobiographical.” Some interesting things about her was that she was a part of the Mexican Communist Party and was disabled from polio as a child. She often told stories of her life through her art and what she had experienced throughout it.
Some things I had been told by a Spanish teacher of mine in the past was that Kahlo explored gender class, identity, and even politics in her art.
