Chaos: It Has No Plural.

Like All Of Latin America, Mexico After Independence In 1821 Turned Its Back On A Triple Heritage: On The Spanish Heritage, Because We Were Newly Liberated Colonies, And On Our Indian And Black Heritages, Because We Considered Them Backward And Barbaric. We Looked Towards France, England And The U.s., To Become Progressive Democratic Republics.

I Live Through Risk. Without Risk There Is No Art. You Should Always Be On The Edge Of A Cliff About To Fall Down And Break Your Neck.

The Mexican Revolution Was A Break With The Past To Recover The Past. We Were Trying To Deny We Had An Indian And A Black And A Spanish Past. The Mexican Revolution Accepted All Heritages. It Allowed Mexico To Be Mestizo.

Art Gives Life To What History Killed. Art Gives Voice To What History Denied, Silenced, Or Persecuted. Art Brings Truth To The Lies Of History.

I Use A Lot Of Film Images, Analogies, And Imagination.
