About the artwork: These photos are a reflection of my ongoing journey to heal from the shame I’ve felt as a Mexican American growing up in a primarily white neighborhood. I was in high school when I shot my first rolls of film. Given the opportunity to choose a meaningful topic for my final photo project, I chose racism. My friends didn’t get it. The most memorable piece was a double exposure and for this art show I wanted to pay homage to my earliest works as a BIPOC woman photographer.
