Victoria recently graduated from the University of Texas below she poses with one of the main pieces of the exhibit.


Victoria & her parents at opening night.
 Victorias time in Texas made her reflect on the violence that affects women accross the border and Las Muertas de Juarez is one of the themes she explores in her artwork. The pieces below have newspaper articles that cover the violence/female genocide in Juarez which she burned and displayed on wood board.

 Here is another view of the "burn" paintings

Here she poses with some prints.



Another theme she explores is perception of "beauty". She depicts women with deformities, scars, anorexia and explores the pain and darkness of their experience.
