De Sol a Sol (From Sun to Sun) is a visual tribute to the immigrant workers whose labor sustains entire nations — often silently, often invisibly. This intimate piece honors the dignity, strength, and endurance of those who rise with the sun and work until it sets, building lives and futures while too often being overlooked.
Painted in rich layers of acrylic, the piece captures the emotional weight and quiet resilience that define the immigrant experience. Earth tones and warm, worn textures speak to lives shaped by sacrifice, while subtle marks and shadows suggest the passing of time — a life of repetition, toil, and perseverance.
Created for the Sumex XXI exhibition at the Mexican Consulate in Miami, this painting stands as a refusal to look away. It asserts that behind every structure, every harvest, every brick, and beam, there is a human story — and that story deserves recognition.
Mood: Honest, reverent, reflective, dignified
Main Colors: Burnt sienna, ochre, muted gold, earthy reds
Inspiration: A heartfelt homage to immigrant laborers. De Sol a Sol is a declaration of worth, a quiet protest against invisibility, and a reminder that to be human is, and always will be, enough.
