Is it shared or something more personal? Through painting, illustration, and installation, the artist invites viewers to explore her definition of being a Oaxaqueña (state located in the southern part of Mexico - Oaxaca) living in the US. Across the different mediums shown, she examines themes of identity, community, and sense of belonging to narrate her journey of self-discovery, all while she invites her audience to reflect on their own experiences. Throughout the exhibition, she questions her audience: What is your identity built on? What do you consider home? Perhaps home can be one place—or perhaps it is many places all at once. Exhibition on view: September 24–October 13, 2026 Gallery hours: Mon–Thurs, 9am–6pm; Fri, 9am–5pm Helen Lindhurst Fine Arts Gallery, Watt Hall Official event details: https://calendar.usc.edu/event/ashley-oscal-ser-oaxaquena-es
