Artist Ocote created “Anima/Aminus” as a part of the annual Houston Urban Experience (HUE) Festival. “Anima/Animus”, portrays Carl Jung’s masculine and feminine archetypes as ancient Mexican gods, captured in modern fluorescent color. It is located at Talento Bilingue de Houston and features cacti and faces in vibrant colors, such as orange, yellow, purple, and blue. Diego Alvarez, who works under the tag Ocote, is a social psychologist from Mexico. Chatting about the message behind the piece, Ocote echoes Gonzo’s thoughts about the role of public art in the urban environment, “Through your art, you can start something in the public that will start a fire in your consciousness.”
