Carmen is an Afro-Latina artist whose work draws deeply from the rich cultural heritage of El Salvador, blended with the powerful influences of their African ancestry. Through a dynamic fusion of colors, textures, and symbolism, her art speaks to the intersection of identity, heritage, and personal history, weaving together the stories of her Salvadoran roots and Afro-Latina upbringing.

Born and raised in Boston, Massachusetts, Carmen has always been inspired by the vibrant traditions, folklore, and landscapes of El Salvador. The lush beauty of the Salvadoran countryside, the warmth of its people, and the rhythmic pulse of its music are ever-present in their creations. However, it is her Afro-Latina background that serves as the soul of her work. Drawing on the ancestral wisdom and resilience passed down through generations, her art seeks to highlight the often-overlooked stories of Afro-descendants in Latin America, while celebrating the unique blend of culture.
