About The Artwork

The title refers to the new type of race war, killing Indigenous people, Middle Eastern brothers and sisters, people in Africa and our youth here in the United States. The will and power to fight against oppression and racism grows as more young victims are slain simply because they look suspicious and appear as stereotypes. San Francisco and the Bay Area has long been a place of political refuge, artistic growth and social change. This image was taken at the Million Hoodie march for Trayvon Martin, March 21, 2012 after he was coldly executed buy a man that is roaming the streets. This watercolor depicts the Iconic march that shed light in a storm of controlled media where corruption and greed are the main characteristic of policies, justice and currency.
 As a daughter of two migrants from Michoacan Mexico many injustices happen before my eyes. The only thing I can do is document and express in paintings the spontaneous reaction to the oppression that is felt by the whole globe. Though we are many, we are all connected. This painting illustrates the parallel between speaking out in hopes of healing and causing change in order to free our souls from the deception and de-humanization that surrounds us.

“As an artist/journalist I like to travel the world and express in my paintings how humans, nature and ideas affect each other, giving the world a unique perspective on observations and situations that come about daily and historically, as well as social and psychological issues. The process of my paintings consists of trying to be everywhere in Califaztlan where cultural and social communities come together for one common purpose. Whenever I see a striking, thought provoking, and conceptual image before my eyes I grab a hold of my camera. The image must contain a certain idea or question with just the right mood. If there is a story I will capture it, if the quality is just right, I will paint it. My art comes from my real life and dreams in the West Coast.”
