Details:Hector Dionicio Mendoza was born in Uruapan, Michoacan, Mexico, and grew up with an appreciation for faith, ritual, and the environment. The artist’s multimedia artworks blend ideals of geography, memory, and labor. His use of cardboard boxes, cinder blocks, and other recycled materials, along with plants and natural imagery draws out these associations. Mendoza’s grandfather, a fifth-generation curandero (shaman) of Afro-Caribeño lineage, who practiced alternative healing traditions, was a pivotal influence on his artistic concepts, materials, and imagery. In Mexico, as well as Central and South America, the curandero plays an important role to many people beginning the difficult passage to El Norte/The North (United States), by providing blessings and protection for the journey. Mendoza immigrated to King City, California, with his family when he was twelve years old. The foundation of his artistic practice is rooted in Indigenous Purépecha people’s reverence of ancestors and spirits in nature as well as the religious and spiritual concepts of Catholicism, shamanism, and ethnobotany.
