The image is an archival pigment print. The photograph depicts an altered memory of Sarita’s neighborhood from her early youth in Puerto Rico. The “environment” is made up from cinder blocks, twigs, clay, and actual plants. No digital alterations are done to her images and color corrections are merely applied when needed. Everything in the images exists on the stage when the photograph is being made. The paint, scratches, and lighting, all are present and composed to create a subtle multi-layered world. Sarita’s process attempts to bridge one of the gaps that exist between photography and painting.
