In the United States today there are at least 5,000 children in foster care because their parents were deported or have been arrested due to irregular immigration status, according to a recent report prepared by the Applied Research Center, a New York organization that promotes social and racial justice.
This piece by Salvadoran artist Gabriela Molina, we see the anguish of the separation and chaos introduced into the lives of children. The tragedy of the collision of ideology with reality, which is becoming commonplace int he United States. When we see these children as real, exactly like our own, we will change and take the trouble fo a nuanced approach to immigration and the all too blunt instruments that regulate it.
Ms. Molina:
Gaby works mainly in watercolor, gouache, pen, ink and Photoshop. Her pieces are characterized by a variety of textures, bold lines and strong stylizations, and are influenced by different cultures, journeys, memories and ideas. “I like to play with colors, lines and textures,” she says, “to provoke certain emotions and feelings in my illustrations.”
Her main goal is to keep growing as an artist and to develop in as many areas of the illustration market as possible.
Feel free to contact her anytime to inquire about business, ask a question, or just say hello.
