Who’s in the Mirror?

May 22, 2008

Would you know yourself if you were two years old and got a haircut for the first time, if it was kinda drastic?

He sees himself in a picture and says- “Enn!” thinking it’s his brother.
Or, “TaTa?” for abuelita-maybe it’s her?
If it’s not my brother, is it my grandma? Who is this person?
It’s you, sweetie!

Welcome to this blog where I store all things related to my recent art + writing work.

I think a lot about social structures and the internal emotional landscapes of the people that make up those structures.

I make art as a way to disentangle how people relate with each other.
