LIBERTAD is an oil painting on wood panel and is available as prints. This painting was created in honor of all the immigrants seeking asylum and a safer life in the United States. The mother and son in this painting are based on my dear friends, Hilda and Ivan, who courageously left their home in Guatemala and led a sanctuary movement in the United States in 2016-2022.
The painting shows the quetzal bird flying above the mother, Guatemala’s national bird and symbol of freedom as well as the many beautiful flowers and familiar plant life of Guatemala. The blue jay flying above the boy symbolizes the spirit of bravery and intuition to follow the right path. The inner landscape and sole man in a small boat represent the challenges a person faces in adapting to a new culture and the roots under their feet symbolize their search to feel rooted and safe. The butterflies symbolize transformation and migration reminding us that immigration is an ever happening occurrence throughout human kind, throughout time, all over the world.
