Yvette Mayorga's exhibition, Pu$h Thru, showcases her characteristic blend of beauty and social commentary, presenting a vibrant, pink aesthetic that critiques Eurocentric art narratives. Drawing from her Latinx heritage and personal memories, Mayorga employs her skills with piping bags and bakery tools, echoing her mother's work as a baker. The exhibition reinterprets her childhood experiences, reframing them through a Rococo lens, ultimately challenging stereotypes tied to race, class, and gender. Her term 'Latinxoco' encapsulates this intersection of cultural identity and art, making beauty a medium of resistance and a challenge to traditional power structures.
Mayorga's latest exhibition, Pu$h Thru, blends beauty with critique, presenting a fusion of personal history and cultural commentary through an ornate, pink aesthetic.
