Decolonizing Sticker Book

This is an installation that encompasses a decolonial sticker book along with a glass cactus and mirror sculpture. The piece revolves around the phrase "cara de nopal", an often derogatory term meaning "prickly pear cactus faced" used in Mexico to describe someone as stupid and/or indigenous. These stickers are a form of self reflection and empowerment as a way to reclaim this phrase as a positive view on indigeneity.
