Las Fotos Project presents: Chroma, a solo photography exhibition by Wendy Cubillo.
Through the creative expressions of Los Angeles youth, Chroma sheds light on the often overlooked facets of coming of age. The project embraces intersectional identity and represents the journey of self-discovery through the lens of three distinct sections. The first section explores expectation and perfection as we question societal norms. Section two is the aftermath. It is the depiction of anger and frustration as we confront heartbreak, loss, sexuality, and body image, asserting that chaos is not an antagonist, but rather a catalyst for personal growth. In the final act, Chroma celebrates confidence, resilience, and strength. It honors community artists, family, and friendships, symbolizing the beautiful chaos of growing up and the diverse experiences that shape identity.
In making statements through photography and journalism, Wendy Cubillo (b. East Los Angeles, California, 2004) tells stories related to identity, culture, and pride. She is a live music, event, and studio photographer, often combining the three to highlight self-expression. Wendy has created a print and online platform, Eonagapi, showcasing local community creatives from music, fashion, art, and film. She received the 2022 Youth Catalyst Award awarded by Las Fotos Project and the city of Los Angeles for actively disrupting mainstream media. Wendy strives to push the boundaries of photography by focusing on small details, culture, and complex emotions.
