My neon boob artworks each represent a woman and a story. Today, I want to share the stories behind three of these pieces and how they connect to embracing different body types, including what some might call Mexican Big Boobs.
From left to right in the photo, the first piece is called “Dominga.” Dominga was my grandmother’s name, may she rest in peace. She, my mother, and myself – we all have big boobs. It’s a family trait, a heritage passed down through generations of women in my family. For a long time, I felt ashamed of my large breasts. Growing up, they felt like they were just too big and drew unwanted attention. However, over the years, I’ve come to accept and even appreciate them. These are the “coconuts” I was meant to have, as I like to joke! This artwork, “Dominga,” is about genes, about heritage, and about the physical resemblances that connect women in a family across generations. It’s a celebration of where I come from and accepting my body as part of that lineage, including my mexican big boobs.
The second piece is titled “Plus, we’re not perfect.” These neon boobs are not only big, but they’re also uneven. This is intentional. It represents the reality that natural bodies are not symmetrical or “perfect,” especially for plus-size women. Many plus-size women struggle with their body image, and honestly, so do women of all sizes. The truth is, none of us are perfect, and that’s perfectly okay. This piece is about embracing imperfections and learning to carry ourselves, and our bodies, in a healthy and positive way. It’s about accepting natural mexican big boobs and all body types as they are, without striving for an unrealistic ideal.
Finally, the third artwork is called “Bipolar.” This piece is dedicated to everyone who lives with bipolar disorder and faces the daily struggles of shifting moods and thoughts. To anyone experiencing those highs and lows, please know that you are loved. It’s important to hang in there, reach out for help when you need it, understand your symptoms, and talk to your family and support system. While I’m not an expert on bipolar disorder, and I don’t want to speak beyond my understanding, I want to extend my support and celebrate all women, no matter what challenges they face, both mentally and physically. This includes celebrating all body types and sizes, and acknowledging that self-love and acceptance are vital, regardless of whether you have mexican big boobs or any other body characteristic.
With light and love,
Teresa.
