Rasquachismo Jarred Cactus Print

Rasquachismo is a term coined by Chicano scholar, Tomás Ybarra-Frausto to describe "an underdog perspective". In Chicano art, it refers to the Chicano sensibilities of making the most of what you have -- an aesthetic that sometimes manifests as repurposed items and ingenious appropriation of materials.  This aesthetic is a hallmark of Latino culture and these plants, lovingly potted in repurposed food containers perfectly captures that sweet sentiment of Rasquachismo for me. 
My fun and unusual Rasquachismo-inspired art print comes from my original illustration paintings of charming cactus growing in repurposed food cans, a hallmark of Mexican Rasquachismo. These paintings were originally painted in acrylic marker in a kraft paper sketchbook, which gives them their quirky and loose quality.
