Since then, Luchita took on themes of a broad range of styles and themes, highlighting political issues related to feminism and environmentalism while incorporating different approaches to art, ranging from modernist abstraction to decorative arts and indigenous figurative and surrealist style. Although her journey to being accepted in the world of art was a long one, Luchita states, "I really haven't ever resented any time I've given, because I don't think it's time lost."
Hurtado's' most famous works may be the "I Am" series (1960), which fixes the viewer in the artist's head, looking down at her own body in a way that often conjures a landscape painting.

What is abstract art?
Abstract art uses form, shape, line, and color to create a visual experience without attempting to represent external reality. The composition exists independently of the world's visual references, focusing on expressing ideas and emotions through non-representational means.
