Artist Marcelina Gonzales: Challenging Preconceptions of Being a Hispanic Female, Empowerment & Balancing Studio-Work Life

April 24, 2020

In this episode, I talk to the artist Marcelina Gonzales about challenging preconceptions of being a Hispanic female through her work. Marcelina creates meticulous pieces that combine paint and resin to recreate memories of her youth. In our conversation, she discusses how she navigated her experience from adolescence to womanhood while growing up in Brownsville, a border-town located at the southernmost tip of Texas.
