"I attempt to decipher a woman's body as being absorb by landscape and colonial power of dominating more land and bodies: The conceptual approach I aimed to investigate is the woman's body as a monument, like the Corpus of Christ. History often teaches us to praise the oppressor. As a queer, brown, low-income woman, formerly undocumented, this has kept me from admiring those who came before me and, by extension, myself. In my mash-up, I aim to create meaning through juxtaposition, which inspired me to present the image of Jesus crucified as a brown woman, using a warm color palette of browns, pinks, and muted tones. This image reclaims a colonial and religious concept to reveal how to be a woman is to be crucified and continuously have an apology in our hands for being."
