“Dobler Dzul references the atrocities made by the Spanish bishop Diego de Landa against the Mayan religion and civilization in the Yucatan as a motivation to make new Mayan works. Around 1562, he burned most of the Mayan manuscripts that served to mark the Mayan history and culture.
 As a Mexican-American, the artworks of Dobler Dzul allow for me to imagine a world where our indigenous histories can co-exist alongside our European roots.”
