To overcome feeling helpless watching conflicts harm innocent people, I made this vest to express a prayer for the protection of women and children as wars rage
This spring I saw birds nesting in the weirdest places; inside a wooden utility pole; inside the “weatherhead” where a powerline enters a building; on top of a business back door. Birds show the way to make a home in our city, creatively repurposing what is available — they are just like me.
Had a solo show at After time Collective Gallery in 2024
For my birthday, I birthed Orquidia, a Chaleco Protector self portrait. Like a flower, our birthdays bloom annually, marking the passage of years with delicate resilience.
The Lluvia chaleco is for the wearer to be at peace with water and the rain.
Que llueva, que llueva,
Los pajaritos cantan,
Los nubes se levantan,
¡Que sí! ¡Que no! ¡Que caiga un chaparrón!
