Chicha

My art is highly influenced by the street art in Oaxaca and New York. When I first saw wheat-pasted art in Mexico, I was drawn to the layers, mixed mediums, and impact. Swoon is my most influential street artista. She is one of the biggest street artists aside from Banksy, who is also a pretty big influence on my work. My ideations start with traveling and understanding the everyday life of Latin America. I use my photos and look at architecture and my surrounding for concepts. My artwork shows the everyday life of Latino America. –Artist statement
