Día de Muertos Featured Artist | Matie Rhodes 2024

Selected as the featured artist for Mattie Rhodes’ 2024 Día de Muertos exhibition, I created the central artwork, which was also featured on the official event flyer and merchandise. The layered paper-cut composition depicts an anatomical heart surrounded by cempasúchil flowers, gently mended by a hummingbird—a symbol of connection between the living and the deceased. Rooted in Mexican traditions of remembrance, the work explores love, healing, and the enduring bond with those who have passed. The artwork was later acquired by AltaMed.
