Abstract
I was born in the United States, but raised in the setting of a traditional Mexican household. Amidst the liminal space of that classification-not an absolute Mexican, yet not a perfect American, I create a broader understanding of living with two perspectives and merging them into one identity. Social fragmentation is a phenomenon in which people in society relate through categories of culture, language, and economic class. In this paper I will talk about my experience as a first generation Mexican/American. The intersections of religion, familial history, and development of knowledge are the subject matter of my sculptures.
