Community Impact

Since moving to Michigan in 2015, I have shared my work through exhibitions and collaborative projects focused on cultural connection and collective memory. During the pandemic, I was invited by the Mexican Consulate in Detroit to create a children’s art project, which strengthened my relationship with the Mexican community across the state and led to my role as volunteer Art Director for CasArt, a nonprofit dedicated to promoting Mexican culture and art.

In 2022, I launched my Day of the Dead performance project, a live, immersive experience that blends painting, music, and movement. Collaborating with Mexican singer Adel Ruelas and contemporary dancers, I create performances that explore the spiritual meaning of Día de los Muertos and invite audiences to engage emotionally with the tradition.

Each year, I create a new piece to honor my ancestors and reflect the Mexican perspective on death — not as an ending, but as a continuation of love, memory, and identity. Through my work, I aim to build cultural bridges, create spaces for healing, and use art as a living dialogue between past and present.
