Kneeling female figure with blanket, Nayarit (2022)

This figure remakes, as an imagined migrant, Kneeling Female Figure/Chinesca (2nd-4th century; Mexico, Nayarit; Nayarit culture; Metropolitan Museum of Art 1999.272.1).

The addition of the blanket was drawn from seeing repetitive images of migrants draped in blankets while “in transit.”
