I am inspired by traditional art forms that allow me to articulate ideas about culture, gender, and notions of identity.  Although I was trained as a painter, for the past eight years, I have adopted crochet, embroidery, and comic book visual vernacular as techniques to interpret these ideas.  I am interested in the comic's reductive representation of women's bodies and identity.  I appropriate these images in hopes of liberating them from their pulp fiction world; merging embroidery and crochet with popular culture --Mexican comics-- to witness the new language that is generated through this interaction.

Throughout these last eight years, I have learned to trust my process and by articulating my ideas through needles, fabric, thread, pens and markers I have encountered a mesmerizing language that is leading me to an expansive world of image and form constructing that is not limited to the portrayal of the female figure.
