This piece with an uplifting quote from Chilean folk singer Victor Jara was originally made for the Headwaters Foundation for Justice in Minneapolis. It reads: "My hands are all I own, they are my love and my sustenance." "Mis manos son lo unico que tengo, son mi amor y mi sustento."

I was born in the coffee growing mountains of western Puerto Rico and moved to the US at a time of great social upheaval. My art has grown up inseparable entwined with my activism and sense of community. Art, to me, is a collection of medicinal herbs and nutrients that can help individuals, communities and societies overcome the cultural toxins that keep them from making needed changes. I live in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where I work out of a storefront studio. I live in close relationship with the social movements, organizers and activists who inspire my work. Additional posters, notecards and buttons are available at my studio web store at www.rlmartstudio.com. You are welcome to browse both locations.
