las tres hermanas, 2019.
Las Tres Hermanas is a visual representation of my family's occupational history and their migration story from Morelos, Mexico to the United States. In agriculture, the three sisters are beans, squash, and corn that are known to support each other in their growth when planted right next to each other. Each crop is represented and symbolizes three generations in my family.
