This exhibition showcases a special collection of his latest work including various tibors, wall murals, plates, as well as debuting his newest painting. He melds his heritage and love of Mexico, infusing his work with familiar imagery and subjects that are inspired by his dual identities as both Mexican and American. Garcia loves to create and explore a variety of materials and techniques, merging them with his iconic style that blends old and new world. Garcia masterfully fuses his Mexico with his impeccable world-class skill, while upholding Uriarte Talavera traditions, the heritage and the artisans of Uriarte Talavera.

Uriarte Talavera known for their handmade ceramics, majolica technique, brilliant colors of the mineral pigments, created in Puebla, Mexico. Talavera is the only ceramic in the world that has "Denomination of Origin" and Uriarte is the oldest founded in 1824 and one of the most prestigious Talavera in the world. Garcia began working with Uriarte Talavera in 2018, receiving  a mural commission from the Four Season Hotel to create a wall mural made with the famous talavera tiles.

"I am honored and exhilarated to collaborate with real artisans who have been working for many years with talavera. I am able to learn more about the process and better understand the techniques that have been used for centuries. I am motivated by the learning process, it is the exploration of my culture, heritage and about myself and most importantly "My Mexico" because talavera is Mexico," declares Garcia.

Garcia is a native of San Luis, Sonora, Mexico, migrating to Arizona in his early twenties with drive, passion and the desire to create art. His work is featured in numerous galleries and private collections in both the United States and Mexico, including representation by Royse Contemporary.
