Metal Tribute
Wearable Sculpture
2024
This is based on the characters who are trans sex workers from Camila Sosa Villada’s, Las Malas. The piece enhances the features & empowers the wearer, yet the sharp material hurts the wearer. It depicts the moods and emotions of these women and how they felt when encountering their clients. Feeling like a goddess, powerful and feminine, but also the feeling as if you are just an object to be oversexualized, used, & abused.
