Massachusetts-based ceramics and fiber artistNicole McLaughlinuses her artwork to explore the complexities of her dual heritage.
Though born and raised in Massachusetts, she remains deeply connected to her Mexican roots.
It really came out of this need to add another layer to my work.
My grandmother and mother have made huge efforts in order for me to experience my culture and heritage.
They, as the women who raised me, are the biggest influences on my creativity and drive.
Although we may not see eye to eye at times, we are all grounded in our cultural roots.
