In the Studio Rediscovering #googleartsandcultureapp while working on a special papelpicado design requested for a tattoo. This piece is the first of its kind where the design will feature symmetrically both positive and negatives. Every piece of paper that has been cut out is used to create only the negative space of one side. The cutting process has become second nature but the process of using each negative cut is much more tedious and time consuming but it’s worth it and I’m excited to see the finished piece. Stay healthy, Stay safe, stay home Saludos. #stayhome #artistlife #inthestudio #papelpicadoinspired #tattooart #handcut #medusa #keepindycreative #artistatwork (at Indianapolis, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-V4W8WAiJ3/?igshid=e7anzjdf5rgn

Unseen Exhibition due to COVID cancellation Here’s a few pictures of my ongoing exhibition which opened in the most of the COVID social distancing. Immigrant Denied: Border Elegy Hope&Loss opened March 11, 2020 at Marsh Gallery at Herron School of Art and Design The shadows behind the work is metaphoric message of unseen and forgotten souls inside ICE detention centers nationwide. This exhibition matters now more than ever as many asylum seekers are at the most risk of contacting COVID while the evils of ICE agents continue to recklessly Hunt people down placing them in overcrowded cages. Immigrant Denied exhibit will be videotaped by PBS WFYI as a visual tour. Thank you @jaditmire for all you do for the arts in Indianapolis always bringing the importance of social justice artists and cultural awareness to the forefront. Upcoming Video tour coming soon, for now enjoy my larger than life intricate Papel Picado Inspired works.
