Andrea Muñoz Martinez
Andrea Muñoz Martínez is a Latina artist who paints abstract landscapes of the US-Mexico borderland, draws portraits, and makes interactive performance art. She was born and raised in Uvalde, Texas and graduated with a BFA from The University of Texas at Austin and an MFA at UC Davis. Her work can be found in the public collection at the Center for the Study of the Southwest at Texas State University. Of her exhibition “Dogs Heal in Borderlandia” the Austin Chronicle wrote, “For Martinez, these abstractions are not only a way for her to depict the land she calls home, but to take a space often characterized as dangerous and dark and infuse it with bright hues of joy and hope...” She gives public talks about art and art making to university students and public audiences.
