Ethos

As an artist and activist in Los Angeles, I create paintings that weave my Mexican heritage with the city’s raw earth. Using oil, oil pastel, charcoal, indigo, cochineal, and local soil on wood panels and paper, I explore the tactile interplay of self and landscape. My work, inspired by Jung’s psychological landscapes and my Za-zen Buddhist practice, captures the flora and fauna of both nature and the psyche, balancing form and emptiness.
