About the Artist…
Alejandra is a printmaker, cultural curator, and community advocate from San Francisco. She is critical of societal norms and their impact on marginalized people and is fascinated by the power of radical imagination through the act of dreaming and creating art. This has led her to pursue a career in youth arts education and arts administration while pursuing several independent projects centered in cultivating connection and community.
