Artist ( Description ): 

Jaime Ochoa draws inspiration from Mexican muralists like David Alfaro Siquerios, African American artist Charles White, and Los Angeles street art blending historical and contemporary influences into his work. He employs mixed mediums and recycled materials, acrylics, aerosols, stencils and linocut print making to create paintings that reflect a vibrant tapestry of social, political, and Meso-American iconography. His art celebrates life, honors past traditions, and commemorates loved ones. Blending the use of ancient imagery and an homage to nature, Jaime conveys a deep connection to heritage and love for the outdoors.

Jaime is also a Los Angeles muralist and has worked as a props master with IATSE Local 33 for twenty years channeling his artistic talents into many television productions. He studied fine arts at Pasadena City College and Art Center.

Marina Hernandez is a multidisciplinary artist born in Los Angeles and raised in Mexico until the age of 11. She works in collage and photography drawing inspiration from her Latina roots. She studied at Pasadena City College fostering a passion for storytelling.

Her pieces are heartfelt explorations of identity, culture, and the transformative power of creativity. She has a passion for collecting vinyl and vintage clothes which influences her work blending music, fashion, and an appreciation of 1950's Mexican cinema.   Her collage work is a rich tapestry that celebrates the interconnectedness of these influences alongside topics of beauty, pain, and healing.

Marina incorporates repurposed materials into new creations celebrating the nostalgia of the past while contributing to sustainable art practices for a unique aesthetic that reflects her personal, spiritual, and healing experiences.
