"Pedro’s Ascension" is a part of an ongoing series of artworks celebrating my maternal & paternal grandparents life and their contributions while surviving life in the United States of America. This work honors my grandfather’s death in Summer 2021 and recognizes the beginning of his military service starting as a teenager during World War II, an experience which forever altered his life.

This image from the 1950’s captures my maternal grandmother in her late-twenties, a time when she worked tirelessly as an Mexican immigrant farm worker traveling across the Southwest & Pacific Northwest with her growing family.
