Artist Statement
This body of work is an exploration of personal stories of local Hispanic individuals and their journey battling with Mental Health and Mental Health Care.  Mental Health is highly stigmatized within the Hispanic community due to immigration, religion, and personal relationships.  These photographs shed light on the struggles endured, and open up conversations about Mental Health and Mental Health Care both within and outside of the Hispanic community.  It is important to have these conversations to better understand the Hispanic culture and their needs as part of this society.

Rearview Mirror is sponsored by Gulf Coast Community Foundation.

Declaración de la Artista
Este cuerpo de trabajo es una exploración de historias personales de individuos hispanos locales y su viaje luchando con la Salud Mental y el Cuidado de la Salud Mental.  La salud mental está muy estigmatizada dentro de la comunidad hispana debido a la inmigración, la religión y las relaciones personales.  Estas fotografías arrojan luz sobre las luchas soportadas, y abren conversaciones sobre la Salud Mental y el Cuidado de la Salud Mental tanto dentro como fuera de la comunidad hispana.  Es importante tener estas conversaciones para entender mejor la cultura hispana y sus necesidades como parte de esta sociedad.
