Artist Statement

Artist Statement

My work portrays women of colour in uplifting ways, celebrates the mestizaje of my Latin roots, and explores a feminine aesthetic through fabric and fibres as both medium and imagery. My paintings in the Vaivén (Sway) series depict Latin women in Caribbean-inspired settings and draw on the hammock as a symbol of comfort, protection, family history, and connection to place.
