Danza Azteca

Born in Lima, Peru,Hugo Ludeña moved to the NW in 1993. He began capturing the Latino life as it happened; through festivals, concerts, community events, traditional weddings and everyday life. As an artist, my goal consists of breaking up Latino stereotypes in media and visual arts. My work shows authentic Latino families in their mood of celebrating, dressed in their best garments or in their job environment. We came to this country with our own values, our history and traditions. –Artist statement
