AND I FEEL FINE / Y ME SIENTO BIEN
"And I Feel Fine / Y Me Siento Bien" is a series of hand-embroidered, painted and drawn mixed material artworks of migrants traveling to and across the US-Mexico border juxtaposed with people during and after mass shootings. Each artwork takes four to six months to produce. The series was begun in 2019 and is ongoing.
