Tierra, Sangre y Resistencia
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: For myself, art has been a way to explore my Chicanx realism a la Cheri Moraga. There are so many conflicting emotions I have experienced as a mestiza indigenous brown individual living on the borderlands. I have lived with much rage, having survived the colorism within my own family, the racism from both lands of the North and South, and the identity crisis that comes with learning to accept myself as de-tribalized and indigenous in a country which refuses to accept that we are natives and not immigrants.My contribution to this issue is a painting for the issue’s cover titled “Tierra, Sangre y Resistencia” (acrylic, 26x30) which represents violence, survival, and resistance.
