From the Artist
“Corazon de Campesinos” is inspired by the small ranch town of San Juan Citala, in Jalisco, Mexico,
hometown of my mother and her family. The ranch thrives off its abundant fields of tomatoes, peppers, and corn. Growing up in south city, I spent my summers at the ranch, where I would play with cousins, work the tomato fields, and watch old movies in the town square. From a 9’x45’ landscape, the mural features life in San Juan Citala as it has both evolved and stayed the same over the decades. The images are based on my own memories, photographs, and stories told by my family.
