Mónica MC. Artivista

 

Mónica Mendoza-Cawthon (Móni La Artivista), hails from South King County, where her keen eye for the ethereal and her dedication to environmental and social justice were nurtured. Her work is deeply informed by over a decade of experience in advocacy and law, as well as her Juris Doctor degree.

 

Expressing herself through painting, drawing, writing, and spoken word, Mónica's creations are fueled by her passion for social and environmental causes, her rich Mexican heritage, and her love of science fiction and mysticism. Her art celebrates and uplifts women of all genders, LGBTQ, Black, and Brown communities. 

 

Mónica's art has graced the walls of various coffee shops across the Puget Sound region and has been showcased at cultural events like Fiestas Patrias at the Seattle Center. Recognized for her contributions, she was honored with the 2019 Roberto Maestas Legacy Award by El Centro de La Raza. 

 

Through her art and cultural endeavors, Mónica seeks to inspire others to dream boldly, heal deeply, and act courageously. Her hope is that her work will become both a mirror and a spark - reflecting truth, resilience, and the power to effect change.
