Using hand-made paper and printmaking processes, Leigh and Maria responded to the women's memories. Their collaborative approach to making the work created a space for critical dialogue surrounding what it means to make art within a social practice. Leigh and Maria hope that Bosquejos de una Memoria (Traces of a Memory) will create interest in stories of immigration, thus inspiring respect for these women and their valuable life journeys.
