Raul Caracoza is inspired by the Latino culture of his home in suburban Los Angeles. His recent works focus on Latino icons and musical figures. This colorful screenprint depicts the artist Frida Kahlo (1907-1954), who was married to the famous muralist Diego Rivera. She was known for her colorful clothing inspired by traditional Mexican dress that asserted her cross-cultural identity. Her work consists of compelling self-portraits in which she established her unique visual persona.
