Today on Clay in Color, we chat with Yvette Mayorga. She creates ceramic sculptures and acrylic paintings that resemble delectable cakes and pastries that subversively critique the idea of the American Dream. In our interview, we talk about Mayorga’s discovery of Rococo excess through Catholic decorativeness, embracing rasquachismo through unexpected materials and strategies, and her intentional use of pink as an exploration of expectations of femininity. We also discuss how she uses self-adornment as a form of expression in her personal life, which is transferred iconographically to her work. Furthermore, we discuss the fallacy of the American Dream and how she hopes to create spaces for dreaming.
