A Vital Matters Perspective: Tanya Aguiniga's Practice: In the Studio and Beyond

Tanya Aguiniga's Practice: In the Studio and Beyond

Natalie Godinez describes Tanya’s artistic practice as combining studio-based art making with community-focused work connected to AMBOS, as well as educational activities that take place both formally and informally. She discusses how themes related to growing up at the border, migration, and family history are incorporated into the work, alongside the use of materials associated with craft and decolonial practices. Godinez also notes Tanya’s collaborative approach in the studio, where assistants learn techniques through participation, and how this process challenges traditional hierarchies around who is considered able or authorized to make art.
