Ruben Ulises Rodriguez Montoya (Born 1989 in Parral, MX) creates beings that are a fantastic becoming that center around anthologies and social issues concerning border culture, abjection, adaptation, and mestizaje aided by Speculative Fiction, Nahualismo, and the Labor of his family. His work hybridizes and creates parallels between land, the human, and the animal as a way to investigate the process in which violence eradicates, erases, and erodes communities of color. Guides that rest and shapeshift between different hybrid states of; the mundane, the terrible, and the sacred. Montoya is based in USA & Mexico.
