Vision.
The vision for this collection is to expose the complex, layered reality of the Puerto Rican identity and experience through a modern, relatable and memorable visual language. My goal is to make these profound narratives accessible and relatable, while fully honoring the historical weight and ancestral legacy they carry. By utilizing characters and familiar domestic objects as catalysts, I look to spark critical conversations and to utilize my psychological background as a vehicule that explores awareness around cultural inheritance. By taking modern, recognizable elements and charging them with deep historical, political, and cultural layers. Ill be able to spread awareness and people to pay attention to struggles and complexity that comes from years of oppression and colonialism, here is my shout to the void... is anybody out there? Through this act of creation, I honor those who came before me, preserving their memory, keeping their impact alive, and fiercely claiming the right to take up space.
