Las Flores Dan Besos is a hand-tufted textile artwork featuring a single lily—a flower that holds quiet, powerful meaning in my life. It represents the tender knowing my grandmother held about my queerness, long before I ever had the words for it. The piece is a love letter to that unspoken understanding, a moment of recognition between generations, carried in the language of flowers. Through softness and thread, Las Flores Dan Besos becomes a tribute to queer intuition, ancestral love, and the ways we are seen before we learn to see ourselves.
