Linda Vallejo at Museum of Latin American Art (MOLAA)
Artist Linda Vallejo's “The Brown Dot Project” is an elegant solution to questions about Latino population data in Southern California. To break it down:
-Within the area of each image are 48,400 squares.
-48.3% of Los Angeles’ population is Latino.
-48.3% of 48,400 squares is 23,377.
**This piece contains 23,377 Brown Dots to represent the Latino population in Los Angeles.
-She counts the dots in increments of 50. 23,377 dots equaling 467 sets of fifty dots plus 27.
Here is Linda explaining her work currently displayed in MOLAA's exhibition, El Exploratorio.
