Cande Aguilar’s work is rooted in the vibrant streets and rich cultural fabric of Latin American urban neighborhoods—particularly the beloved Mexican American border town barrios. Through his barrioPOP art, he seeks to honor and elevate the everyday experiences of these communities, weaving together the diverse threads that define their unique identities. barrioPOP is more than just a visual style; it is a movement that captures the Chicano essence of life in the barrios. His art draws heavily on the cultural fusion that defines Latin America, reflecting its history and the evolving nature of its cultural identity in a rapidly changing world.
