I am an artist born in Oaxaca, Mexico (1994) and based in Everett, Washington. Pulling from my background in photography, design and community organizing, I seek to create intimate accounts that reflect on my experience navigating changing landscapes.
In my recent work I explore my relationship to places I inhabit, how materials hold memory, and how built structures and artifacts can function as forms of portraiture. At the same time, my work centers the subtleties of the mundane and the intricate tensions between nature and human intervention. I am drawn to the coexistence of the old and the new, the ecological implications of waste and reuse, and the subtle ways construction becomes a site for understanding the layered worlds I inhabit: family, community, class, labor, systems, and the environment.
