From The Nursery
The series From The Nursery takes as its theme recollections of a childhood spent in Mexico and in New York City. In its entirety, it is composed of twenty-five works on paper. These works speak of the brutality and enchantment that can coexist within a family. They use the historical facts of genocide and dislocation as menacing presences, hovering in the background of the child’s consciousness, always perceived but never directly addressed.
