This five-color serigraph depicts various abstracted motifs, of which birds in flight and tree branches are the most prominent. In Our Remembrance/In Our Resurrection was printed at Self Help Graphics and Art, which Sister Karen Boccalero founded in 1970 in an effort to give Latino artists a space in which they could both produce and exhibit their work. Self Help Graphics continues to offer workshops to youth and emerging artists in the community.
