Mi Oro, Tu Amor
1994
Cotton, barbed wire, gold wire, paint, corn.
48" X 51"
An early map work. New Spain supplied Europe with enough gold to finance the Renaissance. The barbed wire is wrapped with gold wire. The entire area is embroidered with gold thread into a grid pattern. The true gift is in the corn and bean seeds hidden within the work.
