Artist and designer, Born in Mexico City, raised in Louisville, KY
I like new technology and machine work, but I also enjoy analog work like painting, building, and working with people in the community— literally building a community. It’s a multifaceted thing.
I also focus on certain colors, like CMYK vs RGB. I also work with fluorescents, which reflect more light than they absorb. I love that concept because I think as people we should reflect more light/positivity than we absorb.
Interdisciplinary Artist From Louisville, KY
Modifying found objects like etchings on windows. Experimentation and willingness to take a risk, not knowing if you’re going to fail There’s an element of play
Lizzie Hill
Artist From Elizabeth, Indiana (rural town)
I use a lot of accessible materials from my home, including repurposed materials, textiles, natural materials, plants, and items associated with comfort, home, and memories. I focus on tactile/textural memories of mundane things.
