¡Felicidades Lulu! (2022)

Solo Show & Artist Talk

SXU Gallery at Saint Xavier University - Chicago, IL
August 22nd - September 13th, 2022


¡Felicidades Lulu! was Marylu E. Herrera’s first solo exhibition following her MFA thesis show, expanding on themes of cultural inheritance, celebration, and personal narrative. Presented at the SXU Gallery, the exhibition showcased a vibrant mix of ribbon-based sculptures, digital prints, and textile works that reflected her playful yet poignant approach to Chicana identity and memory. Works like "Mi propio corazón me lo grita," "Que Sera Serape," and "Piñatazo" embraced craft, humor, and sentimentality, creating an immersive, altar-like space full of joy, tenderness, and familial devotion.
