Bonita
This artwork reveals the inseparable bond between humanity and the natural world. The figure, woven into roots, leaves, and flowing earth, is not merely placed in nature, it is nature. The intertwining represents harmony, dependence, and the undeniable truth that our survival is rooted in the health of the environment around us.The piece speaks to balance: how every breath we take, every drop of water we drink, and every harvest we gather is part of a larger cycle. When humans thrive, nature thrives; when nature is destroyed, humanity suffers the consequences.

Blinded and Bound
This artwork confronts the viewer with the stark imagery of a figure blinded, in chains, and roped, a haunting symbol of oppression, silence, and captivity. The blindness represents the deliberate denial of vision and truth, where justice and freedom are kept hidden. The chains embody systemic restrictions; political, cultural, and social,that keep individuals, especially the marginalized, from rising to their full potential. The ropes signify control, the unseen hands of tradition, power, and fear that keep the victim restrained.
