De los Dos Lados

2021- 23', Monoprints

De los Dos Lados is a series of printed barn quilts that focus on the topic of biculturalism and the straddling between two identities (Peruvian and American nationalities). I take inspiration from the push and pull of barn quilt patterns as a way to represent both cultures as a form of abstract expression. Since barn quilts are typically regarded as emblems that represent a homestead, I use them to experiment with the questioning of what really is home, when belonging to different nations, families and social circles.
