Artwork Description
Description
This piece was inspired on the Zapatista Movement, back in 2000 after finishing my Art School, I went on a Caravan Relief through UNAM (Univeristy of Mexico) to the upper rolling hills of the jungle in the heart Chiapas were most Mayan Indigenous Communities lived. It was an eye opening experience, from their living conditions, the harassment by the Federales and simply basic rights such as education, freedom and being indigenous. We all needed to have TzoTzin /Spanish translators. In 2017 Mayan Women finally had their own radio station and that's when I was inspired to paint a Zapatista
