Luis De Jesus Los Angeles presents Karla Diaz: Mal de Ojo (Evil Eye), a series of vibrant self-portraits exploring identity, cultural heritage, and alter egos through watercolor and acrylic. Drawing from Mexican and American vernacular, Diaz reimagines the superstition of the evil eye as a call for protection and collective strength. Her surreal, colorful compositions weave humor, folklore, and tradition into reflections on vulnerability, memory, and the shared dynamics shaping Latinx experiences.
