GRENACHE ROSÉ / VILLAGE OF ROSES · ÚSHMAY

This illustration pays homage to the village known as Ushmay, which was translated and recognized by anthropologists as the “Village of Wild Roses”. Geographically, Ushmay is defined by a creek and valley at the boundaries of the Juaneño and Luiseno territories.This area later became known as Las Flores and is located a few miles south of the coastal area known as San Onofre, California. Despite these transformations, the coastal region retains its historical and cultural significance, serving as a reminder of the ancestral lands of the Juaneño and Luiseno tribes, as well as the diverse histories that have unfolded in this area over time, particularly in the village of the wild roses.
