"Corazón is a celebration of life and love. Anthropomorphizing animals to discuss difficult physical emotional and psychological ideas is the conceptual backbone of my work. Romanticism for the American landscape and the hybridization of Mexican, American and indigenous cultures have long informed the content of my work. Images that have cultural, biographical and art historical references are carved into the surfaces of my woodblocks." -Ricky Armendariz
