“My inspiration is here, and so is my community.” Like every son or daughter of immigrant parents who fought to carve a life for themselves in one of the most expensive cities in the country, Thalia Gochez still notices moments like the particular way a viejito (old man) is posing as he stands waiting at the bus stop or the way that the woman selling food at the mercado does her makeup and styles her hair. “There’s never a lack of inspiration here. It’s the only way I know how to view the world,” Gochez says. “My inspiration hasn’t disappeared, because I haven’t disappeared.”
