Artist Statement
Her2+ by Marco Antonio Hernández is from a series of works created in 2015 for an exhibit titled Blood Lines: A Visual Journey Into Cancer. It is a 30′ x 6′, hand-carved, plexiglass panel that is edge-lit with color LEDs.
It was produced in response to research that was done to understand the profile of the breast cancer that my wife had been diagnosed with in 2013. The intention of this piece was to show the dualistic nature of an illness like breast cancer, which can be both beautiful and horrific.
