MAJESTIC
ARTIST STATEMENT
The Quinceañera has become a controversial event within feminist circles that is often referred to a patriarchal institution that forces women into marriage thru the church and continues to dominate women for their benefits.
But I believe that we have taken this celebration out of context, for 100 or so years ago, women had very little options. Either they become a feminist and join the convent under the protection of the church, or joined the social norms and become a wife and a mother protected by patriarchy.
"Majestic: A Quinceañera Reimagined" questions and investigates the mainstream feminist view and instead desires to create a new initiation into womanhood that reflects the values of spiritual feminism today.
Below are digital collages of my upcoming ideas that will be transformed into oil paintings. Majestic Art Exhibit is to be determined for 2025-2027 and we are currently seeking cultural centers and museums in Mexico and the United States.
