"Mexicano Americano" invites viewers into a labyrinth of intersecting lines and layered colors, a reflection of an identity caught between worlds. Each shape and hue blurs the boundaries between Mexican and American, merging them into something both unified and fragmented. The paths within this piece do not lead to a single conclusion but rather evoke a sense of searching - a journey through spaces where no one culture fully completes the self. In these shifting forms, there is a quiet tension, a yearning to belong, and an acceptance that perhaps this in-betweenness is its own identity. The empty space represents the lost sense of self, my own self, in not being able to connect with one or the other. I will never be "American enough" because I don't look the part and I will never be "Mexican enough" because I never lived the part.
