Interference (Space), 2021

This piece belongs to a series of works on paper that I started in New York and finished in Mexico City last summer. They are physical documentation of my experience in both places. The first layer, the printed images, is a self-portrait with flowers that I made in New York. The second layer, the drawing, was done in Mexico City - it is a translation of the city's sounds into color and marks. These pieces result from two modes of making that contradict and support each other overlapping. They are also a way to explore the complexities of my experience as an immigrant.
