In my creative journey, I explore liminal spaces, reflecting my migratory path and socioeconomic experiences. I create installations using collage, mixed media, and sculptural elements.
My approach is dynamic and eclectic, drawing inspiration from diverse sources, including family photographs, found imagery, and discarded items. I breathe new life into these materials, recycling the old into fresh beginnings. Rooted in an instinctive approach, my art explores family history, everyday interactions, and the human ethos. It's a visual dialogue that intertwines the ordinary and mundane with cultural and commercial imagery appropriated from newspapers, magazines and web imagery.
My creative practice is instinctual, guided by the materials and processes themselves. I embrace the challenge of repurposing older work to give birth to something new. Central to my work is the construction of life-size family members, transformed into hybrid beings. Within these creations, I engage in liminal spaces woven from family documents, photographs, interviews, and conversations. This journey uncovers my identity and the collective history of my family amidst the evolving American socio-political landscape.
My art is an odyssey that delves into the interplay of personal history, collective identity, and the transformations of our shared world.
