Born and raised along the U.S.-Mexico border, my work is informed by my personal experience as a Mexican American and composed through a mixture of traditional rendering, abstraction, and bisected planes.

Using the human form, I reference Mexican and Chicano iconography to convey the conflict of living in liminal and culturally complex spaces. My media typically consists of oil, acrylic, graphite, found objects, video, and sound to reflect on themes of erasure, migration, assimilation, cultural duality, and sociopolitical concerns rooted to the borderlands.
