Brown Baroque MONOGRAPH

The Brown Baroque: Objects of Opulence, an installation project twelve years in the making, examines and interprets the politics of color, class, and privilege by appropriating and reconstructing American antique and pop objects to invite the viewer to consider socio-political, socio-culture issues in a space where history, culture, and data interact in an imaginary futurist space. Life-size Victorian interiors are painted in milk-chocolate brown to ask: How are Latinos seen, how do we see ourselves, what is our status in American history? And what are our contributions to American culture and economy?
