ARTIST STATEMENT

Yo soy mojada-seca and raised in the urban

American, Indigenous American, Mexican,

Mexican-American, Texan, Hispanic, Mestizo,

and by proxy, Chicano and Latino experience.

 

My mother gifted me the knowledge of community

self-determination, aesthetic formalities, object making,

storytelling, and experiences in creative and informal economies.

And living as a mixed blood and mixed-cultured idealist, I know the magic in dreaming, family, and the intricacies

of moving across land and nations.

​

My artwork concentrates on the mechanics of aesthetics within indigenous diasporas and retribalization epistemology, propaganda, and the importance of encoding meaning and metaphor in objects. My practice transverses knowledge-based systems, public space, street art, technology, graffiti, and text. It lives as photographs, videos, sound projects, podcasts, books, and sculptures.
