| dc.description.abstract | The artist's statement: "There are no ordinary moments. There is always something going on." - Peaceful Warrior. I have found myself noticing miniscule and subtle details in things that when uncovered bring a new kind of understanding and perspective. Looking deeper into everyday things of this world leaves me in awe and with a feeling of new found discovery. I love to see how the ordinary can be transformed into something exceptional and unique, how it can capture a different or deeper meaning and feeling to what is there. Discovering this beauty, and different meaning, along with a specific moment is what my work is based on. There comes a point where it feels time has stopped, when things are really noticed. Food carts, known as loncheras in the Hispanic community, are seen in different places and not given much thought. By focusing on these, I see the beauty as well as a kind of personality etched in all of them. From the way they are set up to how the menus are depicted, there is a sense of liveliness to each one of them that is unique. The presence of human figures adds more interest to me, showing the lives of these people at this point in time. My work also has a cultural focus, in which I don't want to just depict the Hispanic community, but show a deeper insight that is overlooked at times. The combination of culture, details, and a specific moment encompasses my work. I tend to work in a more factual way, showing what is actually there in front of me, which makes finding what is special in things more rewarding in the end for me. | |
