Inspiration for their Dual Duel:
As two Mexican-American artists, our intent was to create a series of diptychs that portrayed our culture with two different contexts. One, in a historical perspective from the roots of our culture, juxtaposed against the second canvas that shows how our people are currently portrayed in this country.
