Gallery 2A

Undergraduate exhibitor

This exhibition explores the traditional native plants of Southern Mexico and Belize through sculpted and thrown ceramic vessels. Espejo Cochrane seeks to connect with her ancestors and their cultural practices of cultivating the earth by creating works of creeping vines and sprouting blossoms. Rooted in research, and family history, Espejo Cochrane hopes to convey honor, spirituality, and respect for the land through this body of work.
