This artwork serves as a symbol of the quintessential bodega grocery bag, commonly found both in the Dominican Republic and in Washington Heights, the most prominent Dominican neighborhood in Manhattan. It reflects the cultural heritage and identity of the artist, rooted in the Dominican diaspora. Simultaneously, the work engages with broader ecological concerns, particularly the discourse surrounding plastic consumption and environmental degradation. This dual narrative—at once a homage to Dominican identity and a commentary on global ecological and political challenges—creates a layered reflection on contemporary life and diasporic experience.
