Edition of 75 with Dignidad Rebelde's studio symbol as a dry embossed seal in left hand corner
After a series of unfortunate events, starting with a cancer diagnosis on my 40th birthday, I spent time reflecting on the most painful and agonizing feelings I experienced during these difficult times. I came to realize that my suffering during these challenges is rooted in the traumatic events I lived as a child. This led me to think about the harms that young people from historically oppressed communities often endure in the most formative moments of our lives.
This series of prints emerges as a counterweight to the cruelty that kids endure on the daily and instead offers affirmation and celebration.
In this piece a young boy embraces his vulnerability, sensitivity and tender heart as a strength.
