Artist's Statement
My practice uses experiences, seeing, touch, smell, for ideas I create. This practice helps me be intuitive while constructing an object. I create in the space of my studio, but the memory of the actual experience and my psychological response are incorporated into the work. There are ideas that use other experiences such as books, movies, music, foods, and textiles. My experiences as a Latina woman concerning social justice as well as the experience of others in society are important to me. References to being female, human, sister, wife, mother, healer, scientist, and multicultural, all influence my art objects.
