Title: Art Sanctifies Boredom
Date: 1984
Medium: wood
Art Center: Centro Cultural de la Raza
Comments: This calavera sits on a stool constructed of limbs
from a tree, inside a structure which suggests that it is a frame
for a house. An open window hangs from the crossbeam. The calavera
is armless, has its legs crossed, and clenches a cigarette between
its teeth. Dice stick into a pile of dirt at its feet.

Title: Donkey Cart Altar
Date: 1985
Medium: wood
Art Center: Centro Cultural de la Raza
Comments: A two wheel carreta has the painted image of a man
with his hands raised in the air and a border patrol agent frisking
him. Stairsteps in the piece have "1985 San Diego" painted on them.
On the back of the cart is a Xerox of a photograph and information
that identifies it as a "portrait of Francisco Sanchez, shot to death
by the border patrol on December 8, 1980."

Title: Little Big Boy Meets El Niña
Date: ca. 1985
Medium: wood and metal
Art Center: Centro Cultural de la Raza
Comments: A wooden box supports the simple frame of a house.
The floor of the house has been carved and painted to look like an
ocean, and a ship resembling those of the Spanish conquistadors is
riding the waves. On the roof is a torpedo or bomb waiting to be dropped
on the Spaniards either because of their decimation of indigenous
populations, or in reference to the Spaniards' massive annihilation
of and disrespect for other cultures.
