ARTIST STATEMENT
The image of the jaguar dissolving remains engraved in my mind, just like those souls that I have seen pass and have had to let go into another dimension. The blue jaguar represents that pain, the pain of impermanence, of the ephemeral of life; the souls that have died, the friendships and lovers that leave, the injustices that keep happening, the animals in danger of extinction, and all the losses of life.
