Art Produce is pleased to present “Chula Vistan,” mixed media paintings by Anna Stump, in which the artist explores her relationship to her hometown and the Mexican/American Border region.
Stump grew up in Chula Vista and has raised her own children in the South Bay. She has a complex relationship to Border culture, a jangling mixture of jealousy, admiration, and otherness. She was raised to both fear Tijuana and honor Mexican culture, pale in her own Mid-Western, Protestant roots.
Stump uses imagery of piñatas, marble busts, drones, and golden eagles to represent the envy, unease, and irony of Border living. She will host a “Think Tank” in the gallery to discuss ideas of culture in the South Bay. |
