La Lucha Libre

My mother grew up in a very machista household, but she had a passion for La Lucha Libre (wresting) unfortunately her father would never allow her to watch much less attend a match, My mom grew up with two boys cousins around the same age and her uncle was the one to take her to her first match ever! Of course behind her father's back. This was something my mom shared with me growing up. This was a way for me to give into my mother's childhood a piece of her childhood back. In this series I allowed my mom to embrace her inner Luchadora Poderosa and thus the result.
