Reynolds creates cosmic, geometric, and fractal designs and has exhibited his work in Mexico, the U.S., and Panama. He describes his art as 'visionary' and often paints in altered mind states. Reynolds has worked with collectives and the Jalisco’s Culture Department through Ruta Plástica, facing challenges such as delayed payments. He prefers private sector work but deals with financial instability. His upcoming projects include a mural on Guadalajara train tracks about immigration and providing aid to migrants. Reynolds' recent exhibition was at the “Pacha Moma” museum in Irapuato, and his work can be seen in various locations in Guadalajara.

The article discusses the pervasive issue of violence against women in Mexico, highlighting that six out of ten Mexican women experience violence in their lifetimes. Futuro Jalisco, a political party, is emphasized for its commitment to include women in political decision-making and its feminist principles. The co-founder of Futuro, Susana Ochoa, speaks about the party's efforts to involve women, particularly mothers, in leadership roles. The article also mentions the Spotlight Initiative, a UN-sponsored program supported by President Andres Manual Lopez Obrador, which aims to combat gender violence in Mexico with a significant financial commitment. However, the article points out societal attitudes that blame women for the violence against them and mentions problematic statements from public officials. Ochoa criticizes these attitudes and calls for a re-evaluation of traditional gender roles to reduce domestic violence.
