"La Tierra Debe Ser De Quien La Trabajan Con Sus Manos" (The Land Should Belong to Those Who Work with Their Hands)
2017
1'x6'x4'
Cardboard, American flag, nails, berries, cranberries
An extension of "La Tierra Debe Ser De Quien La Trabajan Con Sus Manos," this work also uses berries and their stains to represent the bloodshed of capitalistic exploitation of farmworkers. The removal of the figure allows a more open reading of the work, which allows the viewer to question the moral standing of the United States and any sense of patriotism for it.
