Altar De Mis Memorias

Alma Lopez’s Altar De Mis Memoria is a tribute to her ancestral legacy and the many versions of herself shaped by a bicultural upbringing. Influenced by her Mexican heritage, the gently ascending forms echo ancient Mesoamerican temples, creating a timeless sense of spiritual connection. Soft circular accents recall the shapes she once explored as a curious child, evoking memories of innocence and wonder that persisted even amid adult responsibilities at an early age. Finished in delicate pink glazes, these elements celebrate the inner child who never stopped dreaming, despite life’s burdens. By uniting past and present, Lopez honors her lineage through a vessel that offers a tender space where resilience, cultural heritage, and personal identity converge into one evocative work of art.
