There is one specific image that I have never been able to remove from my mind: an image of a Guatemalan solider pointing a gun at the belly of a young pregnant woman. Ironically, I have no recollection as to the source of that specific image. Part of me wonders if that image even existed,…

#tbt to 2009 collab with brilliant artist @rioyanez ... still one of my favorite projects to date. 💯🔥💯 Acciones Plásticas プリクラ, is a graphic art- Purikurafied extension of the series performance Acciones Plásticas, featuring The Latina Hipster, a bad-ass, Morrissey-lovin’, tuff-girl, sexy chica; The Latina Role Model, a diploma totin’, intellectual, sexy, social media goddess; and The Homegirl, a hybrid of Escobar’s Midwestern Chach and Yañez’s West Coast Chola. #internetart #performanceart #accionesplasticas
I LOVE our pattern 👀❤️👀 #Repost @casabluestudio ・・・ The Casa Blue pattern is inspired by Fibonacci’s sequence and the Golden Ratio. Rooted in data, when expressed visually, these principles create a beautiful pattern that appears in wild places in nature: sea shells, flower petals, pinecones, fingerprints, galaxies, hurricanes, DNA. That’s what we work to do every day: create beauty rooted in data. It’s amazing what emerges when we listen — to the numbers, to nature and, always, to the people. #logo #goldenratio #latinaentrepreneur #femalefounder
And because she clearly needs her own post: 🌽 ELOTITA 🌽 aka. The Fat Free Elotera... The fame seeking second generation Latina — human corn on the cob —come to life, who faked her own death — then came back to life as Calavera Elotera to promote the release of her album. ⁣ ⁣ To watch video with sound, 👩🏻‍💻 The Fat Free Elotera or N.O.R.E. y la Familia feat. the Fat Free Elotera- Mas Maiz ⁣ #thefatfreeelotera #escobarmorales #masmaiz #internetart #performanceart #accionesplasticas
AM I her or is she ME? 10 years strong💪🏽💪🏽 #escobarmorales #whatisrealanyways #thefatfreeelotera #latinx #performanceart #accionesplasticas

Every day, I’m reminded over and over how lucky I am to be doing what I do. Today, @casabluestudio kicked off our pilot youth program Escuela Blue with two hands-on branding workshops with Chicago Public High School students! We had an amazing time and are looking forward to doing many more of these in the future. If you are interested in having us come to your classroom, follow @casabluestudio and send us a DM. #escuelablue #educacionpopular #impactmarketing #purposedriven #causemarketing
The Adventures of Pete the Cat, Callie Cat, and the Dark Lord.... on Xmas 2019... errr Halloween 2019
Tired. Sick. Exhausted. READY TO FIGHT BACK ✊🏽🔥✊🏽 ⁣And as my kids are still chanting ¡𝘭𝘰 𝘩𝘢𝘨𝘰 𝘱𝘰𝘳 𝘮𝘪 𝘨𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘦!⁣ Thank you @conmijente for a phenomenal weekend at #sazonblea2019. I left feeling so energized and full of hope for the future. So many beautiful life long friendships made and more to come!!! ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ As a mama your time is always divided. And I guess the same goes to say as an artist (as I missed some group time while I made art with the Sazonblea babies.) But you know what? Being there. Being present. That’s what’s important. While deep movement driving convos were had downstairs, I was working with the next gen ❤️ upstairs. We talked about the weekend, what they were learning, what it meant to them to be there. We deconstructed the sazonblea logo, talked about Louisville, and talked about being “guests” on someone eles’s land. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Thank you. Just thank you. To ALL of you. Still many folks that I didn’t get to connect with. But I saw you. I see you. I know we will work together. And if we didn’t get to connect (or we started to and my children pulled me away) please reach out! ⁣⁣My deepest love and appreciation goes out to the @mijentechitown crew for bringing me into the fold. And to @chilenoqueer who put up with me the full week prior as we made the Sazonblea book come to life! ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ 📸 @profe.ervin #latinx #mifamilia #raisingthemright
