Kristina Salinas presents a visual exploration of the space-both real and symbolic-between herself and her Mexican roots. Tracing her paternal lineage, Salinas journeys from San Antonio through Laredo to her ancestral home in Candela, Coahuila, collecting images that reflect her cultural identity.

The exhibition title plays on "cognitive dissonance," highlighting the tension between her life as a contemporary artist and the traditions of her family. Through this work, Salinas invites viewers to consider what is lost and gained across generations, honoring the risks and complexities of immigrant heritage.
