I call it maize.

"Even before the constitutional reform, it was mostly illegal to plant modified corn in Mexico thanks to a 2013 lawsuit brought by farmer activists. But experts say it still happens. And they say the presence of engineered seeds and corn in Mexico threatens the vast diversity of maize crops here, which span from burnt orange to purple and pink and which have been adapted over centuries to be grown at different altitudes and climates."

Los Angeles Times · Mexico bans planting of genetically modified American cornBy Kate Linthicum

This time I wanted to draw something I really love, eating quesadillas. But it is not only about taste, but about an old corn tradition. Hand made quesadillas it’s my way to have a pleasure of resistance. Este día de dibujo he querido hacerlo sobre las quesadillas, que no son solo un asunto de sabor sino de resistencia y tradición del maíz. Las quesadillas a mano son deliciosamente mi resistnecia #corn #maiz #art #mexico #illustration #digitalart #politics #characterdesign #animation
