Legends of La Cienega 2015, ‘Where Muses Dwell’

MARIA FELIX REIMAGINED

 
The installation is an homage to Mexican actress and icon, Maria Félix, who refused to work in Hollywood due to the limited and stereotypical roles available for Hispanic women at the time. To express the theme, I reimagined Maria Félix living in the Los Angeles of today, working as a successful actress on her own terms.
