ARTIST STATEMENT: My work is informed by issues of race, migration and identity while exploring
both the personal and historical memory of the two disparate worlds that I
inhabit: the tropical landscape of Puerto Rico and the overpopulated cityscape of
New York.
My practice combines drawing, painting and sculpture within
immersive installation environments composed of objects collected from
different communities, from salvaged wood and window frames to historic
artifacts and vintage photographs. The resulting environments can fill an entire
wall or an entire room, and often incorporate sound and aromatics that draw upon
the history and memory embedded in the objects. I’m interested in the continuity
of time, and in how these interventions may bring these living histories forward
to the present.
