La Virgen

This project required the exploration of going "beyond reality." The collage work I had been experimenting in took on a large role in this project. In its exuberance, these works touch upon the difficulty I have had with understanding and accepting a religion which is deeply rooted in my home country (Venezuela) and the large role it takes with family and friends. Through envisioning myself as one of the most important icons in Catholicism, I am commenting upon idolatry as well as berating our human vices.
