"El Mamón means idiot or also sucker. This monument is gnawing or sucking at the earth. Perhaps he is sapping minerals or resources from the ground, perhaps he draws strength from the earth."

Her love for painting and travel led her to study in Paris at the Ecole du Louvre while in her undergraduate studies at Tufts and the Museum School. Ortiz continued her education at Tyler, receiving her MFA in painting in Philadelphia and Rome. Ortiz moved to New York in 2006 and has never stopped traveling. She has exhibited at Proto Gomez, Selenas Mountain, Front Room Gallery and My Pet Ram.
