Our Mother’s Fears
This is the first series I made independent of my curriculum, which is representative of my experience in perceiving the world for its corruption and evils. Lying deep within my spirituality rooted in Baptism, I imagined the mythos of an omniscient mother deity (by appropriating sculptures made by Francisco Romero Zafra) that surveys the state of the world she forged, and chooses to take action by performing a final act of love to rescue it.
Our Mother’s Envoy of Grief, Paying Her Respects to Our Doomed World
Our Mother’s Hope for Salvation, in Preparation for Our Last Funeral
Our Mother’s Ultimate Sacrifice, Stripping Us of Our Blessed Corona
Our Mother’s Tears of Creation, Flooding Out the Old World
Our Mother’s Divine Exhalation, Breathing Life Into the New World
Shown In
Watson Institute for International & Public Affairs - The Americas
LIST Art Center - Love:Love

Small Format - ALL OF MY HEARTS
