Claudia Cano is an interdisciplinary Mexican artist with an interest in performance, photography and video. Her work focuses in the interactions between Mexican and American cultures, explorations of the modes of labor and works that reflect on the invisibility and inequality of women in an immigrant culture. She holds a MFA from San Diego State University. Cano is best known for her embodiment of Rosa Hernandez, "La Chaca" (the cleaning lady). Rosa can be found cleaning art galleries and museums, and in the homes of collectors. Cano's work is held in the collection of the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego, El Claustro de Sor Juana in Mexico City, Mexico and Museo Felipe Santiago Gutierrez in Toluca, Mexico.
