Statement:
Before you are Looming Objects. Illogically woven and randomly found. Forming a simulacrum of life and death as a random accumulation. Eight vivid hand-loomed nine-inch weavings form the bright side, eight opposing colorless weavings the darkside. Looming Objects includes a dozen Sueñitos (little dreams) — small calaveras representing the migrant children who died this year crossing the US border.
This costume comes into three parts; the body, neck and the head. Available for museams, Galleries and events.

Statement:
A migrant calavera. Tiá reminds me of my 'aunt' who smoked and had blond hair, served drinks at night, and slept during the day. She was funny and danced a lot to cumbias.
