IRAPUATO

CHECK OUT THIS PIECE

IRAPUATO traces the Strawberry Collection directly back to its geographical and ancestral roots.

Created in the formative early stages of the series, this piece pays homage to the strawberry capital of Mexico, the heartland of the agricultural lineage and maternal heritage that inspired the entire body of work. Before the narrative grew into large-scale explorations of memory and modern abstraction, IRAPUATO was about pure origin: honoring the soil, the tireless hands, and the enduring strength of a mother who carried that culture across borders.

Rich with grounded tones, early gestural brushstrokes, and unfiltered warmth, the painting serves as the cultural compass of the collection. It anchors every later piece in deep respect for where the fruit, the family story, and the tradition first began.
