In my most recent body of work, I share aspects of my personal life as a Mexican immigrant to the United States, while bringing light to the cultural, political, and economic climate that shape my experience.
Each painting presents a form of symbolic thought, in which elements from precolonial Mexican art and contemporary American culture and politics, are reinterpreted through my perspective as a Mexican immigrant.
