My work reflects the vibrant colours and landscapes I miss from home. I blend traditional Mexican handcrafts with my background in design, creating pieces that feel like stitching together memories. My use of lively colours brings the desert, the warmth, and my culture into focus, reminding me of where I come from. Through my pieces, I reconnect with my roots while navigating a new place, carrying both a sense of longing and joy.
