Nuestro Pueblo (2022)
Nuestro Pueblo was inspired by the “Borderlands” exhibition in The Huntington's Virginia Steele Scott Galleries of American Art. “Nuestro Pueblo” references the foundational Indigenous, Californio and Spanish settlements from which Los Angeles got its name: “El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora la Reina de los Ángeles” or “The Town of Our Lady the Queen of the Angels.” The 2022 series focuses on the importance of preserving and documenting our city through a lens in order to understand the rich, diverse, and complex cultural fabric of Los Angeles.
