About the Artwork

Painted using acrylic on linen, this work is part of a series that draws on photographs from my childhood, using the material reality of the past as a tool to better understand and look for healing in the present. In Feliz Día Mamá, I am dressed as a duck for a Mother’s Day performance in preschool. These works enable me to explore the intersections between the stresses of personal circumstances and the large-scale complexities of heritage and immigration.
