The Pieta is an image of the virgin holding the dead body of Christ mourning his lifeless frame as she cradles him and weeps over his suffering. In this image I wanted to pay homage to the fugitive slaves who paid for their attempts at freedom with their lives. The Orisha Yemaya comes to the Caribbean shores and mourns his suffering at the hands of his colonizers. The composition is triangular in nature to comment on the common use of the number 3 in Christianity and to pay homage to the deity Pacha Mama who was the Inca goddess of the earth. She is usually depicted as a mountain, and in the colonial paintings of the Virgin Mary in Peru, she is dressed in a triangular shaped gown studded with jewels.

Painting is my obsession. The desire to create images and concepts of a different world are coming from a source through me that I cannot explain. Through the years I remember even as a child a need to paint and draw in order to visualize my dreams. The images that I create now are an extension of my interests in Latin American magical realism, surrealism, and religious iconography. I fabricate gods, new religious deities, magical dressmakers, and mannerist angels. All of these figures are dwellers within the imagination that I have carried for a very long time and are my friends, companions, and iconic symbols to my inner world. In many ways it could be said that my work is an anti reality, a break from the facts. It is also my way of being an anti modernist, embracing religion, traditions, and exercising my hopelessly romantic obsessions.
