Sacred Matriarchs is an immersive solo exhibition inspired by the universal desire for empowerment. As a spiritual being navigating a human experience, my vessel stems from the Andean diaspora. In this lifetime, I was born into a resilient sisterhood, and I dedicate this collection to our Mother. I explore the divine feminine in connection with detribalized descendants. 

Through majestic portraits, we are transported to a realm of Indigenous futurism. Despite systemic alienation, genetic remembrance is powerful. Each piece honors an innate ancestral tradition through vibrant color and meticulous detail. The weaving of cultural themes together is a profound reminder of unity. Protagonists adorned in gold symbolize a contemporary evolution that challenges the historic erasure of inheritance. They embody the strength of generations past and create a narrative of reclaimed voices.

Women in Nature | Taking Up Space is an powerful all-female art exhibition. 'Flowers from Different Tribes'  by Ayala, is inspired by a real moment when a 7-year-old girl from Peru stepped in to interpret for a Mexican woman at an airport, two strangers connected  by language and ancestry. I painted them as angels in a celestial sky,  surrounded by the cantua and the dahlia, national flowers of their  homelands. In their exchange, I saw a piece of myself. This work is a  reminder of resilience amid dehumanizing forces. Rooted in Indigenous  Surrealism, I use airbrush to create ethereal spaces where pain is reimagined into healing — where my protagonists are safe, sacred, and  seen.
