- Abstract of Dissertation Work: I am looking at contemporary U.S. Latinx and indigenous visual production, with special interests in Motherhood, race, and the environmental humanities. I am hoping to center my larger project on depictions of motherhood, particularly motherhood at border sites and mothering in treacherous conditions, such as race-based violence, ecological disaster/spillage, and indigenous migration.
