Bodega Birk. served as an immersive space for Cayla's Take the Lot series. The collection of works depicts Lotería cards, a Mexican bingo-like game, stemming from the popular Tarot game that has pervaded most parts of the world since the early 15th century. The imagery feels recognizable due to varying cultures creating their own renditions of the game. Lotería in Spanish translates to lottery meaning it is a game of chance/luck.


With this context in mind, the body of work boasts objects that are not so easily earned. The juxtaposition of a lottery versus the monetary success needed to acquire such high-end assets is prevalent throughout the series. In essence, you don’t accept the fate of luck, but instead make your own - you take the lot.
